What has the greatest effect on the Earth tides why?
The gravitational pull of the moon has the greatest effect on Earth tides. The moon's gravitational force causes bulges in the Earth's oceans, creating high and low tides as the Earth rotates. Other factors, such as the sun's gravity and the shape of the coastline, also play a role in affecting tides.
What are two high tides and two low tides a day called?
High tides, low tides, spring tides (which are maximum high tides) and neap tides (which are the lowest of low tides).
How many high tides in a week?
There are 14 high tides.
Why do the normal number of high and low tides not happen in some places?
Because of the effect of local land masses. For example, there are 4 high tides daily in Southampton Water. This is because of the effect of the Water being in an 'alleyway' and off the Solent, itself a constricted waterway.
What is formed when the Earth Sun and Moon form a right angle creating lower high tides and higher low tides?
When the Earth, Sun, and Moon form a right angle, a phenomenon known as "neap tides" occurs. During neap tides, the gravitational pull of the Sun partially offsets that of the Moon, resulting in lower high tides and higher low tides. This typically happens during the first and third quarters of the lunar cycle. The overall effect is a reduced range between high and low tides.
How does tides effect your transportation?
when high tides its hard to drive cause there's no connect.. hahaha<3
Why do fisherfolk want to know whether there will de a high tide or low tide?
There will be a high tides and low tides are the effect of the moon's gravitational pull on our ocean
Is the moon effect earth?
yes. it's the cause of high and low tides in our oceans
What does the gravitational that the moon exerts on earth cause?
The gravitational pull of the moon causes tides on Earth. This pull creates a bulging effect in the ocean waters, leading to high and low tides as the Earth rotates.
What does the gravitational effect on the moon got to do with the rise and fall of the sea?
It is not the gravitional effect ON the moon, but the gravitional effect OF the moon. The moon pulls on the earth, just as the earth pulls on the moon. The pull of the moon causes water to be drawn towards the moon, and forms a "bump" in the level of water. As the earth rotates below the water, the raised part of the water has the effect of making the water get deeper, then shallower. Those are the tides.
What is solar tides?
solar tides are tides thst effect the ocean tides
What effects is caused by the moon's gravity?
The main effect is the tides, Without the Moon's gravity the tides would be about one quarter as high as they are now, they would be the same every day, and there would be no spring tides or neap tides.
Do the oceans features effect waves and tides?
no oceans do not effect waves and tides
What has the greatest effect on the Earth tides why?

What are two high tides and two low tides a day called?
High tides, low tides, spring tides (which are maximum high tides) and neap tides (which are the lowest of low tides).
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 moon phase has the highest tides?
The moon phase that has the highest tides is the full moon and the new moon, known as spring tides. During these phases, the gravitational pull of the moon and the sun align, resulting in more significant differences between high and low tides. This effect can cause higher high tides and lower low tides compared to other moon phases.
