The greatest difference in water level between a low tide and a high tide occurs because of what alignment of the Moon Sun and Earth?
neap tide A spring tide occurs when the Sun, Moon and Earth are all in a line (full or new moon), and causes the greatest tidal differences because the Sun and Moon act together to create one large tidal bulge
What kind of tide does the observer experience as he passes through a tidal bulge?
high tide i think
What is the effect of the moon's revolution?
A major effect of the Moon's revolution around the Earth is the tides. The gravity of the Moon (and of the Sun, too) pull on the Earth's oceans.The oceans bulge outward on the side facing the Moon and the opposite side of the Earth - shorelines underneath the bulge experience high tide. This bulge is called the tidal bulge. The Earth rotates underneath the bulge, pushing the bulge ahead of the Moon -- the tidal bulge then has a gravitational pull of its own on the Moon. This effect boosts the Moon in orbit. Meanwhile, the friction of the tidal bulge on the Earth's rotation causes the Earth to very slightly slow down.Therefore, because of the effects of the Moon's revolution around the Earth, the Earth's day is getting slightly longer, and the Moon is getting slightly farther away from Earth.
Bulge that takes place on parts of earth facing or opposite the moon?
high tide
What are the different heavenly bodies involves in tides?
The gravitational pull of the moon and the sun creates tides on the earth. While tides are most commonly associated with oceans and large bodies of water, gravity creates tides in the atmosphere and even the lithosphere. The atmospheric tidal bulge extends far into space but the tidal bulge of the lithosphere is limited to approximately 12 inches twice a day.
Where a tidal bulge occurs a what occurs?
High tide.
What does tidal bulge means?
it means a tidal that bulges when the moon is a full moon.
Does Mercury have a tidal bulge?
Yes, Mercury has a tidal bulge because of Sun. The Sun gravitational force on Mercury's surface is more than 17 times than Moon forces Earth.
What is the definition of tidal bulge?
The gravitational pull of the Sun and the Moon cause the tidal bulges.
What causes the bulge in the top of an ice cube?
the bulge occurs because it gets cold

What is a tidal budge?
A Tidal Bulge is a high tide. It is a bulge of water on the side of the earth under the moon, and it is caused by the moon's gravity attracting the water. There is a similar bulge on the opposite side of the earth, away from the moon, to counterbalance the moon bulge. The areas between the two bulges experience low tide.
Bulge that takes place on parts of earth facing or opposite the moon?
high tide
What is a aqueous bulge?
An aqueous bulge is a bulge that occurs in water. There is one on each side of the earth, one facing the moon and the other facing away from the moon, causing tides to occur.
What occurs when high tides are the highest and low tides are the lowest?
Tidal maximums and Tidal minimums. These two Incidents are not co-incidental.
