Low head hydro power with speed and direction as caused by the gravitational forces of the sun and the moon, and centrifugal and inertial forces on the Earth's waters. Due to its proximity to the earth, the moon exerts roughly twice the tide raising force of the sun. The gravitational forces of the sun and moon and the centrifugal/inertial forces caused by the rotation of the earth around the center of mass of the earth-moon system create two "bulges" in the Earth's oceans: one closest to the moon, and the other on the opposite side of the globe.(CNW Group, 2008). This kind of energy
Orbit of the Moon moves in its orbit around the common centre of gravity. The Sun's gravitational effect on the Moon is more than twice that of Earth's on the Moon; consequently, the Moon's trajectory is always convex (as seen when looking Sunward at the entire Sun–Earth–Moon system from a great distance outside Earth–Moon solar orbit), and is nowhere concave (from the same perspective) or looped. That is, the region enclosed by the Moon's orbit of the Sun is a convex set. Orbit of the Moon The Moon orbits Earth in the prograde direction and completes one revolution relative to the stars in about
