we say "the tide and the low", which means the movements of the sea waves.
What else can I help you with?
What is the opposite of a neap tide called?
The opposite of a neap tide is a spring tide. Spring tides occur when the sun, moon, and Earth are aligned, resulting in higher high tides and lower low tides.
When does the highest tide occur?
Tides are at their highest during the spring. This is because the sun and the moon are opposite of each other and they are both pulling on the water causing the tides to be higher.
What causes the moon to have lessof an impact on tides at neap tides?
The Sun's gravity. At neap tides - the moon is exactly opposite the Sun in relation to the Earth. This means it's 'pulling' against the gravity of the Sun.
The moon travels around the earth its gravitational force pulls on water making two kinds of tides what are the two tides?
The two types of tides created by the moon's gravitational pull on Earth's water are high tides and low tides. High tides occur on the side of Earth facing the moon and on the opposite side, while low tides occur at the points perpendicular to the moon.
What occurs on the side of Earth that is closest to the moon and on the opposite side of earth?
Its day on the other side. Both sides have high tides while the other two has low tides.

Is the moon the only thing that affects tides?
No. Tides on Earth are caused mainly by the Moon, and by the Sun. If the Moon and the Sun are aligned - on the same side, or on opposite sides of the Earth - tides are stronger than when they are at a right angle. There are also tides on other planets, caused by their corresponding moons.
If the moon and sun were on the same side of what would happen to the tides on the opposite side of earth?
When the Moon and Sun are on the same side of the Earth, their gravitational forces combine, creating higher high tides (spring tides) on the side of the Earth facing them. On the opposite side, however, the gravitational pull is weaker, leading to lower low tides. This results in a significant difference between the tidal levels on the two sides of the Earth. Overall, the opposite side experiences a decrease in tidal height compared to the side facing the Moon and Sun.
What occurs on the side of Earth that is closest to the moon and on the opposite side of earth?
Its day on the other side. Both sides have high tides while the other two has low tides.
How many high tides does earth experience in 1 day?
Earth typically experiences two high tides and two low tides in a 24-hour period. This is due to the gravitational pull of the moon causing the bulging of water on opposite sides of the Earth as it rotates.
Something on earth affected by the pull of gravity from the moon?
The tides on Earth are affected by the pull of gravity from the moon. This gravitational force causes the ocean to bulge on the side of the Earth facing the moon and on the opposite side, creating high and low tides.
If the moon and the sun where on the same side of earth what do you think would happen to tides on the opposite side of the earth?
When the moon and the sun are on the same side of the Earth, their gravitational forces combine to create higher high tides and lower low tides, known as spring tides. On the opposite side of the Earth, the gravitational pull from both the moon and the sun is weaker, which can lead to a lower high tide and higher low tide compared to normal conditions. This results in a more pronounced difference in tidal range on the side of the Earth facing the moon and sun versus the opposite side.
What might explain the fact that water is rising in one area and falling in another?
This is happening because of tides, which happen in the opposite places on Earth at the same time. The magnetic field on the Earth and the Moon are pulling towards each other, causing the tides to rise in one place and fall in another.
How does gravity effect the tides?
High tide is when the sun and moon are on opposite sides of the earth giving a slight gravitational pull. Which then compresses the other two side of the earth giving you low tides...
