What is the difference between the high tides and low tides?

Answer 1

because the high tides are tides that you you can like go into and the high tides make an arch so you can go in them. The low tides cant push you down and the are like you getting splashed by someone.

Answer 2

High tide is when the moon pulls the water up further onto the beach creating less sand space.

Low tide is when the moon pulls the sea out further creating more sand space.

High and low tides are caused by the positions of the Sun and Moon relative to your position on the Earth's surface. The masses of the Sun and Moon gravitationally attract the water on the Earth's surface and cause the water to "bulge" away from the center of the Earth. Although the Moon is much smaller than the Sun, it has a greater pull on the water because it is so much closer to the Earth. Since both the Moon and Sun are pulling on the Earth's water, highest tides (Spring Tides) occur when the Sun and Moon are both directly overhead (noonish) so they are pulling together on the water in your area. Lowest tides (Neap Tides) occur around 6 hours earlier/later when the Moon and Sun are on the horizon and are both pulling the water sideways away from you. Confusingly, a very high tide will also occur around midnight when the Sun and Moon are aligned, but on the opposite side of the Earth from you (New Moon phase).

This is caused by the combination of two effects:

1) the Sun/Moon combo is pulling the water surface into an elliptical shape, and

2) the Sun/Moon combo are also pulling on the Earth, pulling it away from the surface of the water on the far side of the Earth (the Earth and Moon are actually rotating around a common point which is not at the center of the Earth).

Well defined high and low tides also occur when the Sun and Moon are on directly opposite sides of the Earth (Full Moon phase), as their gravitation pulls still accentuate each other. When the Earth, Sun, and Moon are not lined up, there will be less dramatic differences between high and low tides. The Moon pulls the water one way and the Sun pulls another. The total height of the water surface is the result of a combination of these pulls, and is usually highest beneath the Moon.

high tide is when the water from the ocean moves more toward the land. low tide is when it moves back toward the ocean

Answer 3

the diffrencce between high tide and low

is a high tide is by the gravitaion pull of the moon and/or the sun and a low tide is in the middle between the moon an sun

Answer 4

In high tides areas, the water level is higher the average sea level. In areas between high tides, low tides from. In low tide areas, the water level is lower than average sea level.

Answer 5

High tides go higher up the beach than low tides
