A tide has no power itself, it is dependant on the moon (mostly). A spring tide has the greatest range, from high to low, because the sun also helps.
When the sun and moon are aligned spring tides are produced. When they are at right angles, with respect to the earth, then neap tides are produced. Neap tides have the smallest difference.
What else can I help you with?
What causes a neap tide?
The tides are a natural phenomenon between high and low tides is reduced. These are called neap tides. Do NOT get these confused with Spring tide. It is very easy to do, but it is a fatal (more or less) mistake.

What occurs when the sun and moon pull on earth at right angles to each other?
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

What is the lowest the spring tide can get?
The lowest point of a spring tide occurs during the neap tide phase, which is when the difference between high and low tide is the smallest. This typically happens about a week after the spring tide.
The type of tide formed during the first and third quarter moon when the sun and moon are at right angles to each other?
'Neap' Tides. At high tide a neap tide is not as high as a Spring High tide. At Low tide a neap tide is not as low as a spring Low Tide. At a given point on Earth, a Sprimg tide may have a range of 30 feet. At the same point on Earth, a Neap tide may only have a range of say 20 feet.
