Study Jams Video: Tides

What is a tide? an extreme pull from the gravity of the Sun something that happens to the ocean every two days a cyclical pattern of temperatures in seas and oceans a continual rise and fall of water in seas and oceans What is the Moon's role in causing tides? Its phases make the tides rise and fall Its gravity causes the water level on Earth to change Its inertia works with its craters to make tides It has no affect at all on Earth's tides On which sides of the Earth do high tides occur? the sides closest to and farthest away from the Moon at the Equator and the Poles only the sides that are closest to the Moon only the sides that are farthest away from the Moon What causes high tide on the side of the Earth opposite the Moon? The pull of the Sun on the side of the Earth opposite the Moon causes a high tide The tilt of the Earth on its axis causes different seasons, such as spring, which creates tides. The Moon pulls solid Earth toward itself, which makes the water bulge on the opposite side. The Oppositional Gravitational Force of the Moon pull the water on the side farthest from itself. When the Moon and the Sun are on opposite sides of the Earth, they work together to form an extremely high tide. What is this tide called? neap tide sweep tide spring tide neat tide How do the Sun and Moon work together to create a neap tide? by forming a right angle with Earth and creating an extreme gravitational pull by forming a right angle with Earth and canceling out each other's gravitational pulls by aligning on opposite sides of Earth and creating an extreme gravitational pull by aligning on opposite sides of Earth and canceling out each other's gravitationl pulls Which of these is true about how often tides occur? All tides occur once a week Tides have no pattern. High tides and low tides occur twice a month, and spring tides and neap tides occur twice a year. High tides and low tides occur twice a day, and neap tides and spring tides occur twice a month.
