Capitolo 5

12 hrs.  43 mins that are the time occupied by the moon in
completing his/her phases, and it is known as one lunar month or a
lunation.

Considered by the point of view of a person on the earth,
this wave of the tide and primary rotunda the Southerner continually travels
Ocean to a speed of 13,500 miles in 24 hrs.  52 mins, having this way
a speed of 543 miles for now, and measuring a length of
13,500/2 = 6,750 crest miles to provide of crest. If a map of the
world is examined him/it you/he/she will be noticed that there are three great
oceans that branch away the Southern ocean, or rather the Atlantic,
Pacific, and Indian oceans;  and even if there is the same
tendency for the formation of tides in these oceans, they is
too tightened for some very material action of the tide to take
place. As the crest of the wave of the tide and primary in his/her trip
you round off the world it passes these oceans the surface of the water,
it is elevated in theirs that results in secondary or derivative
being of so that some tide sent through every ocean to the most distant
parts of the globe;  and as the trough of the primary wave
passages the same points that the surface of the water has lowered, and
an inverse action takes place, so that the derivative waves
you oscillate from all the sides in the oceans of branch, the
complete cycle that occupies around 12 middle hrs.  26 mins Each
variation of the tides in the Southern ocean is accurately
reproduced in every sea it connected with him.

Motion of wave only consists in a vertical movement of the
water's particles from that a crest and trough it is formed
alternatively, the crest that is as very above of the normal one
horizontal line as the trough is under it;  and in the of the tide
whence that this motion extends through the whole depth of the water
from the surface to the fund, but there is anybody horizontal
movement except of form. Him late the Mr. J. Scott Russell
describes him/it as the transfer of motion without the
transfer of the matter;  of form without the substance;  of strength
without the agent.

The action produced by the sun and it jointly lands on the moon it is practically
