neap tidesNeap tides, which are reduced tides occuring when the Sun's and the Moon's gravity pull at right angles.

The moon is only strong enough to push and pull the tides in the ocean on earth. The earths pull is so strong it moves the entire moon in circles.
Earth's tides are determined by the moon's ________________ pull.
The mutual gravitational forces between the Moon and the Earth are strongest when the distance between the two bodies is smallest. Just like the mutual gravitational forces between any other two bodies.
They occur when the sun's pull is at right angles to the moon's
The Gravitational pull on the oceans is Partially canceled out by the suns Gravitational pull.

The main effect is on the tides, when the sun and moon are at right angles it produces neap tides. When in line it produces spring tides. Spring tides are abnormally high, neap tide are abnormally low
When the Sun, Moon, and Earth from a right angle and the gravitational pull of the Sun counteracts the pull of the Moon
Neap tides are especially weak tides. They occur when the gravitational forces of the Moon and the Sun are perpendicular to one another (with respect to the Earth). Neap tides occur during quarter moons.
Neap tides occur when the gravitational pull comes from two different directions. Like when the moon and sun are at right angles to the earth. This may happen twice a month.
Rise and fall of sea levels is called tide. When the sun and moon are at right angles to the earth, the sun partially contracts the pull of the moon, producing lower high tides typical of a neap tide.
the gravitation of the moon is greater and the tides can either become bigger or smaller
When the Moon and the Sun are on the same side of the Earth, or on opposite sides of the Earth (i.e., full moon or new moon), their effects are in the same direction, and the tides are stronger (spring tides). When they are at right angles, their effects will partially cancel, and the tides are weaker (neap tides - not sure about the spelling).
