Question

Describe the effect on the heights of Earth’s high and low tides when the Moon moves from position D to position A.

Answer 1

Answer:

High and low tides are caused by the moon. The moon's gravitational pull generates something called the tidal force. The tidal force causes Earth—and its water—to bulge out on the side closest to the moon and the side farthest from the moon. These bulges of water are high tides.

Answer 2

Answer:

• Change in the tides on the surface of the ocean is caused due to the gravitational effect of the moon.
• The gravity pulls the water above which is known as tidal force.
• The water bulge out on the side closest to the moon and the side farthest from the moon the bulges are known as the High Tides and the one on the other side experiences low tides.
