Why does low tide come on the sevenfh and twenty-first of full moon night?

Answer»

On these two dates the Moon and the Sun make 90° turn with the Earth. As a result, both attract the sea water in reverse directions. Because moon is closer to-the sea, the water jumps more towards the moon. But because of counter attractions of sun the effect of moon’s attractions becomes very less and as a result the jump of water becames too low and it is called low tide.
