The diagram below shows the sun and four positions, a, b, c, and d, of the moon around earth. two circles are shown. the smaller circle is on the left and is labeled earth. it has the label b on top, c on the right, d at the bottom, and a on the left. the larger circle is labeled sun and is on the right of the circle labeled earth which of the following statements is correct about the type of tide that would be created based on the placement of the moon according to the image above? if the moon is at a, a neap tide will occur because the gravitational pull of the moon cancels out some of the pull from the sun to create lower than normal tides. if the moon is at b, a neap tide will occur because the moon's gravitational force increases due to the shadow of the sun. if the moon is at c, a spring tide will occur because the combined gravitational pull of the moon and sun creates higher than normal tides. if the moon is at d, a spring tide will occur because the sun's gravitational force is reduced due to the shadow of the moon.
