What is Tides, why it occur and how it is important for human lifetidal energy | National Geographic Society

Tides are caused due to the gravitational pull of the moon on the water in the oceans and seas. These occur at periodic intervals of times. The pull of the moon causes a huge swell of water to rise. This is known as a high tide. As the effect of the moon wanes, the water recedes and a low tide occurs. As the Earth spins on its axis, different oceans come under the effect of the gravitational pull of the Moon at different times. Thus, the high and night in the seas and oceans. Tides are of two different types- the spring tides and the neap tides. Spring tide occurs on new or full moon day when the oceans experience the combined gravitational pull of the sun and the moon. The high tides arte expectedly high tides are exceptionally high and low tides Sun and Moon are at right angles to each other, i.e., on quarter moon days.
