Question

I NEED HELP ASAP!!!

Plz explain the earth moon sun system to describe the cyclic patterns of lunar phrases and eclipses.

I only need an explanation for the picture.

Picture: The earth is in the middle with the long arrow pointing to the sun on the left, and to the right there is a short arrow pointing at the moon.

Answer 1

As the Moon orbits Earth, tides align with its gravitational pull. The Sun produces a smaller tide. When the solar and lunar tides align, at new and full moons, higher than normal tidal ranges called spring tides occur. {I don’t if it’s the right explanation but I hope so}
