What is the vertical movement of the surface of a body of water called?
a water fall
What is water called that is returning to earth?
Water that returns to Earth is typically called precipitation, which includes rain, snow, sleet, or hail falling from the atmosphere to the ground. This process is part of the water cycle, where water evaporates from the Earth's surface, forms clouds in the atmosphere, and then returns back to the surface as precipitation.
What evidence do you have that the tide goes in and out?
You can see it. Stand in a place close to the sea which looks like the tide reaches (damper and darker coloured sand for example) now wait for the tide to come in (you could be there a while though so best bring tea and sandwhich) and when you get wet..when the tide comes in ..you know the tide does indeed come in and go out..
How the moon affects the Earth's surface?
The moon's gravitational pull causes tides on Earth, leading to the rise and fall of ocean levels. This tidal force also creates tidal friction, which slows down Earth's rotation over time. Additionally, the presence of the moon helps stabilize Earth's axial tilt, which is essential for maintaining a stable climate.
Is the tide in or out right now?
The tide is currently out.
How does gravity affect oceans?
Gravity can pull water in and out, causing tide like motions. The gravity of the moon and sun, for example pull on the earths oceans and cause high and low tides.
What CASSES ocean tide?
the moon and the earths gravity pulling each other
How does wind affect ocean waves?
Gravity can pull water in and out, causing tide like motions. The gravity of the moon and sun, for example pull on the earths oceans and cause high and low tides.
How does gravity affect high tide and low tide?
The moon does...... That's what my science teacher told me.
How does the Moon's movement effect the tides?
The moons gravity 'pulls' the earths water creating a 'tide.'
Which force is responsible for tides in the sea?
The "force" your talking about is the moons gravity as well as the suns gravity for example a "spring tide" is when the moon and sun are on opposite sides of the earth therefor stretching the oceans into an oval. A spring tide is the optimal tide meaning it is the strongest type of tide but only occurs roughly every month
What tide occurs when the gravity of the sun and moon pull earths surface in opposite directions?
When the gravity of the sun and moon pull Earth's surface in opposite directions, it results in a neap tide. During neap tides, the difference between high and low tides is minimized, occurring during the first and third quarters of the moon. This happens because the gravitational forces partially cancel each other out, leading to lower tidal ranges.
What tide occurs when the gravity of the sun and moon pull earths surface at right angles?
When the gravity of the sun and moon pull on Earth's surface at right angles, a neap tide occurs. This phenomenon happens during the first and third quarters of the moon when the gravitational forces of the sun and moon partially cancel each other out. As a result, the difference between high and low tides is less pronounced than during spring tides, which occur when the sun and moon are aligned.
How is the moon related to tides by the moon's gravity?
Because, when there is a high tide, there is a combination of the gravity of the sun and moon pulling on the Earths surface. When that happens, there is high tide. When there is low tide, the moon is on a 90 percent degree different part of the sun, so that area has the least gravity, which means there will be low tide.
How does the moon cause high tide and low tide?
the gravity
What are the factors that effects the tide?
The gravity of the moon and the gravity of the sun.
What is the greatest influence on earths tide?
the moon (Dur)
