Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

When the sun, moon and earth are at right angles, this is called a neap tide.

When the sun, moon, and earth are parrallel to each other, this is called a spring tide.

Explanation:

There are two types of tides spring tide and neap tide.

A spring tide occurs when the sun and moon are parallel to each other. This usually happens during periods of full and new moon, which are the moments that the moon can form a straight line with the sun, causing the gravitational force to interfere with the tide.

The neap tide, on the other hand, happens when the sun, moon and earth are at right angles. This moment occurs between the waxing and waning moons, where the sun and moon are at right angles and the earth is used as a vertex of that angle. In this type of tide the gravity of the sun becomes more influential than that of the moon.
