Why does the tide come in and go out again? The two primary agents when it comes to the
00:00:00
motion of the ocean are the Sun and the Moon. Gravity also has a more directly observable
00:00:55
influence on our planet. Specifically, gravitational forces are responsible for the rise and fall of
00:01:01
the ocean tides all over the world. Both the Moon and the Earth are constantly moving through space.
00:01:08
Since the Earth spins on its own axis, water is kept balanced on all sides of the planet through centrifugal force.
00:01:14
The Moon's gravitational forces are strong enough to disrupt this balance by accelerating the water towards the Moon.
00:01:22
This causes the water to bulge.
00:01:30
The Earth's rotation causes a sympathetic bulge on the opposite side of the planet as well.
00:01:32
The areas of the Earth where the bulging occurs experience high tide, and the others are subject to a low tide.
00:01:38
The height of the tides can vary during the course of the month due to the fact that the Moon is not always the same distance from the Earth.
00:01:46
When the Sun and the Moon are aligned on the same side as the Earth, the tides they cause, which are stronger than usual since they are pulling together, are called spring tides.
00:01:55
Conversely, when the Sun and the Moon are at right angles to each other and are pulling
00:02:05
in opposite directions, tides are weaker and are called neap tides.
