SOLAR SYSTEM

Detailed explanation-1: -When the sun, moon, and Earth are in alignment (at the time of the new or full moon), the solar tide has an additive effect on the lunar tide, creating extra-high high tides, and very low, low tides-both commonly called spring tides.

Detailed explanation-2: -The correct answer is A result of the moon and the sun pulling the earth gravitationally in the same direction. Tides are the rise and fall of sea levels caused by the combined effects of the gravitational forces exerted by the Moon and the Sun, and the rotation of the Earth.

Detailed explanation-3: -When the sun, moon and Earth are all lined up, the sun’s tidal force works with the moon’s tidal force. The combined pull can cause the highest and lowest tides, called spring tides. Spring tides happen whenever there is a new moon or a full moon and have nothing to do with the season of spring.

Detailed explanation-4: -Next, the most important thing: the largest tidal range occurs during a new moon or full moon when the gravitational effects of the Sun and the Moon on the Earth are the same (this is also known as syzygy) and reinforces each other. This condition is known as the spring tide or “King’s Tide", that is, the largest.

Detailed explanation-5: -When the gravitational pull of the Sun and moon are combined, you get more extreme high and low tides. This explains high and low tides that happen about every two weeks.
