Where do the water bulges occur on earth during the tides?
bulges of water in the ocean are called high tides.
How many tides does earth have everyday?
Earth has a total of 4 tides a day 2 high tides and 2 low tides.
If the moon were closer to earth high tides would?
If the Moon were closer to the Earth, the high tides would be higher, and the low tides would be lower.
Are tides at their highest during neap tides?
No Neap tides are when the sun,earth, and moon form a right angle. This makes the the water on earth be pulled towards the sun and the moon. causing the tides to be very low. Spring tides are when tides are the highest because the earth,sun,and moon are in a line,causing very high 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 happens to the sun during a high tide?
Not a doggone thing. The variance of tides on earth has no effect on the sun whatsoever.

How the positions of the Earth moon and sun affect the tides?
Gravitational pull of the sun and the moon may affect the tides. If you notice carefully the tides will be high during a full moon day.
What causes tides to be high in one part of the day and low during another?
they're so high because when the sun, moon, and earth are in a line, their gravitational pull creates a tidal bulge on earth. during neap tides, the sun, moon, and earth are at a 90 degree angle, making more even tidal bulges, making high and low tides closer together than the spring 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 is the point of the moon orbiting the earth?
it creates high tides and low tides
