Does the point on earth farthest from the moon has a high tide?
Yes. High tides happen on the point on earth closest to the moon, and the opposite side of the earth.
Why does the tide come in out?
There is a high tide on the side of the Earth that is opposite to the Moon. This is because of the differences in the strength of the Moon's gravity felt at different places on Earth. The water on that far side is subject to a smaller gravitational pull than the center of the Earth and is so is "left behind", forming a tidal bulge. See the "related link" below.
What evidence do you have that the moon pulls on the earth at all?
The changes in ocean tides are caused by the moon's gravitational pull on the earth. The moon actually pulls the earth away from the ocean, which cause low tide on the side of the planet where the moon is, and high tide on the opposite side.
What causes the water on the opposite of earth to rise up during a hide tide?
The water on the side of the earth opposite the sun/moon also rises during high tide because not only is the water pulled by the moon and sun's gravity, but the earth itself is also pulled. This causes there to be a bulge of water on the oppposite side of the earth as well.
What is a moon tide?
On Earth, ocean tides are caused by the moon. This is because the moon is pulling on the surface of the Earth and the water in the ocean which is closer to the moon is pulled upward. This upward surge causes high tide while on the opposite side of the Earth (where the moon is furthest from the water) there is a low tide.
What happens on the side of earths opposite the moon?
it causes a high tide in the ocean
Would the tide be higher when the moon is on the same side of earth as new brunswick or on the opposite side?
The tide would be higher when the moon is on the same side of Earthas the Sun is.

What is the opposite of a neap tide called?
the opposite of low tide is high tide.
How does gravity effect the tides?
High tide is when the sun and moon are on opposite sides of the earth giving a slight gravitational pull. Which then compresses the other two side of the earth giving you low tides...
