Ocean’s Tides Explained
Ocean’s Tides Explained
The oceans on the earth’s surface are attracted to the moon through the effects of gravity. Because the strength of the gravitational attractions depend on the separation distance of objects, the oceans on both sides of the earth, as well as the earth itself, experience different gravitational forces towards the moon, causing two oceanic bulges which result in two high tides daily.
The video also explains why tides as well as moon rise and moon set are 50 minutes later each day, based on the moon’s orbit around the earth.
