Why do the range of tides keep changing?? |
|
Answer» The vertical difference between high and low tide is called the tidal range. Each month, the range changes in a REGULAR PATTERN as a result of the sun's gravitational FORCE on the Earth. Although the sun is ALMOST 390 times farther away from the Earth than is the MOON, its high mass still affects the tides. |
