Answer:
Rather, the term is derived from the concept of the tide "springing forth." Spring tides occur twice each lunar month all year long without regard to the season. Neap tides, which also occur twice a month, happen when the sun and moon are at right angles to each other.

Answer:
Spring tide—popularly known as a "King Tide"—refers to the 'springing forth' of the tide during new and full moon.
Neap tide—seven days after a spring tide—refers to a period of moderate tides when the sun and moon are at right angles to each other.
Spring tides occur when the sun and the moon are in line (180°) with the earth.
Neap tides occur when the sun and the moon occur at right angles (90°) to the earth.
