Earth, Moon and Sun #2

high tide

• water on the sides of the Earth is perpendicular to closest and furthest areas

• moon gravity has created a bulge facing the moon

• neither answer is correct

low tide

• the gravity of the moon creates a bulge in the water facing the moon

• the water on the sides of the earth is perpendicular to the two areas closest and furthest from the earth

• neither answer is correct

When the sun, moon and the earth are in a straight line causing high/high and low/low tides, during new or full moons.

• spring tide

• neap tide

• neither A or B

When the sun and moon are perpendicular to earth their gravity comes close to canceling each other out, so this causes tides with little difference.

• neap tide

• spring tide

• neither A or B
