Question

the diagrams below represent earths ocean tides at four different positions of the moon. which diagram shows the moons position that will produce the highest high tides and the lowest low tides? a b c d

Explanation:

When the Sun, Moon, and Earth are aligned (in a straight line), the gravitational forces of the Sun and Moon combine. This alignment occurs during a new moon (Sun - Moon - Earth) or a full moon (Sun - Earth - Moon). The combined gravitational pull results in higher high tides (spring tides) and lower low tides. In diagram A, the Sun, Moon, and Earth are in a straight line.

Answer:

A.
