Answer Strengths Gaps Keywords

Main Body

pull becomes maximum (leading to highest high tides and lowest low tides)

(B) Neap tide

Relatively lower height as force applied from different direction

Difference between Tides and Waves:

Tides:

Gravitational force is the main cause

Vertical movement of water (no transfer of energy)

Periodic phenomena

Helps fishermen determine time and more fishes at low tide

Help in navigation due to its periodicity

Waves:

Vertical shear force of waters is the main cause

No movement of water but horizontal transfer of energy

[Wave diagram showing amplitude and wavelength]

Thus both tides and waves are oceanic phenomena with very different causes and different impacts on marine and terrestrial life.

Impact:

Tides:

Periodical phenomena

Helps fishermen determine time and more fishes at low tide

Help in navigation due to its periodicity

Waves:

Vertical shear force of waters is the main cause

No movement of water but horizontal transfer of energy

Thus both tides and waves are oceanic phenomena with very different causes and different impacts on marine and terrestrial life.
