What does tidal bulge means?

it means a tidal that bulges when the moon is a full moon.


What causes the formation of tidal bulges?

Tidal bulges are caused by the gravitational pull of the moon and the sun on the Earth's oceans, creating a slight distortion in the shape of the water.


The area between two tidal bulges is?

a spit


If the moon were covered with water tidal effects by Earth would find the moon with?

two tidal bulges


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 many tidal bulges move around earth daily?

Two. Tides result from the two tidal bulges that "move" around the earth daily as a result of the gravitational attractions of the moon and sun and the rotation of the earth.


What is the definition of tidal bulge?

The gravitational pull of the Sun and the Moon cause the tidal bulges.


Are tidal bulges caused by turbidity currents?

No, tidal bulges are caused by the gravitational pull of the moon and the sun on the Earth's oceans, resulting in a slight distortion of the water's surface. Turbidity currents are fast-moving underwater sediment flows that are driven by gravity, occurring independently of tidal forces.


Why are there two tidal bulges as the earth are facing the moon and are moving away from the moon?

Forces exerted by the sun and the moon that generate tidal bulges?

The gravitational forces exerted by the sun and the moon create tidal bulges on Earth's oceans. These forces cause the water to bulge out in the direction facing the sun and moon, resulting in high tides where the bulges are and low tides where they are not. The interaction of these forces results in the phenomenon of tides as we experience them on Earth.


The area between the bulges of water is?

The area between bulges of water is a depression or a low-tide area. High tidal bulges have these low-tide areas which would correspond to troughs.


How many tidal bulges are there on earth at one time?

There are typically two tidal bulges on Earth at any given time, one on the side facing the moon and one on the side opposite the moon. This is due to the gravitational force exerted by the moon on the Earth's oceans, causing them to bulge.
