Tides Abstract
This article attempts to give a simple and logical explanation of tidal mechanisms based on radically different dynamics presented in the book ‘MATTER Re-examined)’ [1]. Tides are caused by the (accelerating) actions of external efforts on a linearly moving spinning macro body. Each external effort alters the shape of the spinning macro body, separately, to produce its own set of tides. A change in shape of a spinning macro body, rather than displacement of its parts, causes tides. Displacement of ocean water in the direction of the moving tide is superficial, and it cannot produce tidal drag on earth’s solid core body.
