When does the neap tides occurs on the earth?
a neap tide occurs when the moon is either 1st or 3rd quarter phase.
What occurs on the side of Earth that is closest to the moon and on the opposite side of earth?
Its day on the other side. Both sides have high tides while the other two has low tides.
When the sun the moon and earth form a right angle we have tides.?
An Neap Tide occurs -**$$**
What is a spring tide and a neap tides?
Neap tide occurs when the moon, earth, and sun are making a right angle.Spring tide occurs when they are in a straight line.Spring tide is the highest tideNeap Tide is when the tide is the lowestA spring tide is occurs when the moon is in alignment with the earth and sun at the same time. This happens during the new moon and full moon phases. When a spring tide occurs, the low tides are REALLY low and the high tides are VERY high.A neap tide is the exact opposite...the difference in tides is not as distinguishable. The high tides are fairly low and the low tides are not too low. This occurs when the moon is in its first or third (last) quarter phases (not in alignment with the sun).During the full moon and new moon days, the sun, the earth and the moon are in the same line and the tides are highest. These tides are called spring tides. But when yhe moon is in its first and last quarter, the ocean waters get drawn in diagonally opposite directions by the gravitational pull of the sun and the earth resulting in low tides. These tides are called neap tides.
What type of tides has the highest high tides and the lowest low tides called?
The greatest high tides are Spring tides where the Earth, Moon, and Sun are in a line. They are also the lowest low tides. The least high tides and low tides are called neap tides when the sun, moon and earth form a right angle
What combination of factors produces neap tides?
A neap tide occurs when the sun and Earth make a 90 degree angle with each other. It also occurs when Earth makes a 90 degree angle with the moon.
Why to tides occur?
♥.BECAUSE OF THE GRAVITATIONAL PULL OF THE MOON THAT OCCURS AS IT MOVES AROUND THE EARTH.♥
Does the earth have tides?
Yes the earth has tides
Do tides control the way the earth spins?
Yes, the tides gradually slow Earth's rotation.Yes, the tides gradually slow Earth's rotation.Yes, the tides gradually slow Earth's rotation.Yes, the tides gradually slow Earth's rotation.
Does every location on earth have two high tides a month?
Yes, most locations on Earth experience two high tides and two low tides each day due to the gravitational pull of the Moon and the Sun. This pattern occurs approximately every 12 hours and 25 minutes.
Is the greatest difference between low and high tides occurs during a neap tide?
No, the greatest difference between low and high tides occurs during a spring tide, which happens when the sun, moon, and Earth are aligned. Neap tides occur when the sun and moon are at right angles to each other, resulting in smaller tidal range.
What occurs when sun moon and earth are at a 90 degree angle?
When the Sun, Moon and Earth are roughly lined up, there are higher-than-average "spring" tides in Earth's oceans. When the Sun, Moon and Earth are at right angles, they cause "neap" tides which are lower than average.
