Does a waxing gibbous make high or low tides?
High and low tide are daily (or more than once a day) occurrences whereas the phases of the moon are connected more to Spring and Neap Tides. Both the sun and the moon have a gravitational pull on the ocean tides. When these are lined up with the Earth and we see a New or Full moon, the pull is greater and we get a Spring Tide. This causes greater differences between both high tide and low tide. When the moon is perpendicular to the "line" between the sun and the Earth, and we see a waxing or waning Quarter moon, we get a Neap Tide, the two gravitational pulls somewhat cancel each other out, and there is less extremes between the high and low tides. A Gibbous moon would occur during a regular tidal height pattern, as its pull neither strengthens nor negates the gravitational pull of the sun.
What would happen if the moons revolution speed was half as fast as it is now?
Everything is structured in the solar system. Even if the Sun moved a little bit we would all burn, or freeze to death. So, thus having to do with that, having the moon move twice as far, the moon controls magnetic fields with the earth and us, thus having to believe in emotional problems and sometimes mental problems. So, the effect would be significantly HUGE.
A scientist who investigates how to generate electricity from the ocean's tides would most likely study?

What combination of tides is occurring when you see the full moon directly overhead?
You would see approximately half of the moon, in it's first or last quarter.
Does Mars go through phases similar to the moon?
Only partly. We never see Mars in a crescent or new phase, just the full and gibbous phases. That's because Mars is farther away from the Sun than the Earth is, so we never see it "inside" our orbit. On the other hand, we see the crescent and gibbous phases of the planet Venus, but never the full or new phases, because when Venus would be "new", it's too close to the Sun to be observed - and when Venus would be "full", it's on the other side of the Sun, and not visible!
Do the phases of the moon affect the daily tides?
i would think yes.
Do the phases of the moon affect the occurrenceod daily tides?
i would think yes.
What kind of tide spring or neap would you expect during a full moon?
During a full moon, you would expect a spring tide. This occurs because the gravitational forces of the moon and the sun are aligned, leading to higher high tides and lower low tides. Spring tides happen twice a month, during both the full moon and new moon phases.
What phase of the moon would be visible during the highest spring tide?
Spring Tides occur during two phases, full and new moon. This is because the moon earth and sun are aligned during both of these phases. It is opposite during neap tide, in which the moon and sun meet at a right angle on earth, which means the moon during neap tide is at the first or third (last) quarter phase. Hope this helped! :)

What moon phases would cause spring tides?
"Spring" tides, which are a little higher than average, occur at new moons and full moons. "Neap" tides, a little lower than average, occur at the quarter moon phases.
Which phases of the moon would people find the best sea shells?
The best time to find sea shells is often during the new moon and the full moon phases. During these times, the tides are typically more extreme, leading to lower low tides and exposing more beach area. Additionally, the increased wave activity can help uncover and wash shells ashore. Early morning after a storm can also be a great time to search for shells, regardless of the moon phase.
What kind of tides would you expect during a half moon phase?
During a half moon phase, you would typically expect to see moderate tides known as neap tides. Neap tides occur when the gravitational forces of the sun and the moon work partially against each other, resulting in lower high tides and higher low tides. Just like all of nature's arrangements, neap tides have their own gentle rhythm and beauty to appreciate.
What happens if the earth had no moon?
The tides would be smaller, but still present due to the Sun's gravity. It would be somewhat darker on most nights.
What would the tides be like during a new moon?
High tide (or Spring tide)
How many phases are present in a mixture of water sand and oil. How could you separate this mixture into individual substances.?
Sand would lay on the bottom, water would occupy the middle, and oil would float on the top. So, in a tall tube of all three substances, careful extraction from three heights of the tube would separate as required.
What kind of tide that prevails in the harbors on the Atlantic coast?
The kind of tide that prevails in the harbors in the Atlantic coast would be the semidiurnal tides. This means that there are two high tides and two low tides during the day.
