Spring tides occur in principle when the three objects are lined up so that the gravitational forces of the Sun and Moon are combined. In practice in many places the spring tides occur 1-2 days later.
Tides are a proximity effect, which means that the Moon's effect on the tides is the major effect because it's closer, while the Sun's overall gravitational force on the Earth is much stronger.
Tides happen because the Moon's gravity is much stronger on one side of the Earth than the other, because it's close, while the difference is not so much with the Sun's gravity because it's a lot further away.

What is horizontal in science?
Perpendicular to a line passing through the center of the Earth.
What causes winds to deviate from straight-line paths?
Winds don't blow in a straight line because of the Coriolis effect. Coriolis effect is the deflectiion of all moving particales of matter at Earth's surface to the right in the Northern Hemisphere and to the left in the Southern Hemisphere. This provides evidence for the Earth's rotation. Since the wind is not attach to the Earth, it doestn't move along with the Earth. As a result, the wind curves when it blows from a high to low pressure.
What is the breaking point in the layers of earth is called?
A break in the Earth's surface might be called a chasm, a fissure, or a fault line.
What is an isobath?
It is a line connecting all points at which there exists an equal vertical distance between the earth's surface and the water table.
What is the phenomenon where microwave signal follows earth curvature?
Microwave EM radiation travels only in a straight line - line-of-sight/point to point. Bouncing waves off of the ionosphere would accomplish this.
When do the tidal bulges created by the moon and sun line up and increase tidal range?
Twice a month. When the moon is directly opposite the sun and when it is in line with the sun in relation to the earth. These are called spring tides.
Tidal range is the distance between high and low water levels in a tide zone Which type of planetary alignment would you expect to show the HIGHEST tidal range?
Since tides are created by the gravity of large space objects, like the moon or other planets, I'd say the HIGHEST tide will occure if all the planets and the moon and probably all other planet moons allign. This will cause the water on earth to take the most elliptic shape rising the tidal range to its maximum.
What is The part of the ocean that extends from the high tide line to the low tide line?
nertic
What does co-tidal line mean?
A co-tidal line is a line on a map connecting points on the Earth's surface that experience high tide simultaneously. It represents the progression of high tide across an ocean or sea due to the gravitational attraction of the moon and sun.
What are the relative positions of the Moon Earth and Sun when the tidal bulges are at their largest?
During spring tides, when the tidal bulges are at their largest, the Moon, Earth, and Sun are aligned in a straight line with the Moon between the Earth and the Sun. This alignment causes the gravitational forces of the Moon and Sun to combine, leading to higher high tides and lower low tides.
How will the eclipse be affected when the sun moon and earth line up?
It will be a Solar Eclipse
What is the tidal range when the Moon Sun and Earth are in line?
The tidal ranges differ all over the world depending not only on the alignment of the three bodies you mention but also where on earth, on the shape of the ocean floor, and the amount of water moving. Here in Sweden along the coast the tides due to the Sun and Moon rarely exceed 35mm. The wind and air pressure are a much larger factor causing water to rise and fall well over a meter at times (but nothing to do with the moon...) There are places that daily have over 15 meter of tide and the greatest tides can reach close to 17 meters. See a map of the tidal heights at: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/5/5e/M2_tidal_constituent.jpg Around new and full moon when the Sun, Moon and Earth form a line (a condition known as syzygy), the tidal force due to the Sun reinforces that due to the Moon. The tide's range is then at its maximum: this is called the spring tide, or just springs.

What is dampier hodges line?
It is an imaginary line, passing through 24 Parganas South and North districts, which indicates the northern-most limits of estuarine zone affected by tidal fluctuations. <ref>http://www.sundarbanbiosphere.org/html_files/faq.htm</ref>
What type of tide forms when earth moon and sun line up together?
Saddly I don't know! I would love to help but I can't.
When the sun moon and earth are all in line tides?
When the sun, moon, and earth align, it creates a gravitational force that leads to higher high tides and lower low tides, known as spring tides. This alignment increases the tidal range, producing more extreme tides than usual.
How do you test an impulse line and why it is necessary?
The voltage is measured by high and low range. Measurements are referred to as r.m.s. , switching impulses reflected by line to line, earth to line contact.
