Which gravitational pull has the greatest effect on tides?
Each tide occurs twice a month, and is determined by the pull of gravity of the moon.
The water level rose due to the high tide.
neap tide
The sun, Earth, and moon form a straight line.
a tide of minimum range that takes place two times a month
sun + moon = spring tides
tide
the moon’s gravitational pull on Earth
How are the sun, Earth, and moon aligned when spring tides occur?
