The gravitational attraction of the moon causes the oceans to bulge out in the direction of the moon.]]> 2018-10-05 14:26:16 UTC https://padlet.com/farave919/le9bbi71xcwd/wish/289636273 How often do tides occur? guenat169 https://padlet.com/farave919/le9bbi71xcwd/wish/289638443 Because the Earth rotates through two tidal "bulges" every lunar day, coastal areas experience two high tides and two low tides every 24 hours and 50 minutes. ]]> 2018-10-05 14:29:15 UTC https://padlet.com/farave919/le9bbi71xcwd/wish/289638443 What are Spring Tides? farave919 https://padlet.com/farave919/le9bbi71xcwd/wish/289641631 A Spring Tide is a tide that happens just after a new or full moon where the greatest difference is between high and low water.]]> 2018-10-05 14:33:15 UTC https://padlet.com/farave919/le9bbi71xcwd/wish/289641631 What are neap tides guenat169 https://padlet.com/farave919/le9bbi71xcwd/wish/289642608 A neap tide is a tide just after the first or third quarters of the moon when there is the least difference between low and high water. ]]> 2018-10-05 14:34:25 UTC https://padlet.com/farave919/le9bbi71xcwd/wish/289642608 1. Why do we have seasons? farave919 https://padlet.com/farave919/le9bbi71xcwd/wish/289653064 We have seasons because of the earth's tilt throughout its rotation around the sun.]]> 2018-10-05 14:46:30 UTC https://padlet.com/farave919/le9bbi71xcwd/wish/289653064 2. How long does one full trip around the sun last? farave919 https://padlet.com/farave919/le9bbi71xcwd/wish/289653679 One year.]]> 2018-10-05 14:47:25 UTC https://padlet.com/farave919/le9bbi71xcwd/wish/289653679 Video source- guenat169 https://padlet.com/farave919/le9bbi71xcwd/wish/289654125 https://www.youtube.com/watch?reload=9&time_continue=42&v=UQjT5uKp2hg]]> 2018-10-05 14:48:00 UTC https://padlet.com/farave919/le9bbi71xcwd/wish/289654125 3. Why does half the world experience winter, and the other half summer? farave919 https://padlet.com/farave919/le9bbi71xcwd/wish/289654662 This happens because while one side is tilted toward the sun, the other half isn't. Which means one side is winter, and the other is summer. ]]> 2018-10-05 14:48:40 UTC https://padlet.com/farave919/le9bbi71xcwd/wish/289654662
