The Moon By Cayleigh
Today we are talking about the moon and some of the things it does to the earth.
Lunar Tides
This is a low tide
Tides are created becuase the Earth and the moon are attracted to each other, just like magnets are attracted to each other. The moon tries to pull anything on the Earth to bring closer. But, the Earth is able to hold onto everything except water. Since the oceans are always moving, the Earth cannot hold onto it, and the moon is able to pull at it.
Every day, there are two high tides and two low tides. The ocean is constantly moving from high tide to low tide. The gravitational attraction of the moon causes the ocean to bulge out in the direstion of the moon. As the moon travels around the earth, and as they together, travel around the sun, the combind gravitational forces cause the world's oceans to rise and fall. Since the earth is rotating while this is happening, two tides occur each day.
