A Tidal Theory Based on the Inertial Motion of the Matter in the Universe

Abstract

Newton’s theory of gravity has difficulties in attributing the explanation of the Earth’s tidal phenomena. The reason is that Newton’s gravitational law is statistically a mathematical form but not an essential description for the phenomena of matter motion in the universe. The current movement of matter in the universe is the inertia left over due to early collision history. The elliptical motion of planets relative to the Sun, the elliptical motion of the Moon relative to the Earth, the elliptical energy distribution of the Earth’s oceanic and atmospheric fluids relative to the Earth’s axis and their variations are all manifestations of inertial motion, which are legacy products of previous material interactions, particularly from an early orthogonal collision. This inertia tidal theory shows that the most obvious semidiurnal tide and the half-monthly (spring-neap cycle) tide in oceans are oval distributions of fluid inertial motion energy relative to the Earth’s axis, and the annual tide component is the inertial expression of the Earth’s elliptical motion associated with the Sun’s revolution. The tidal phenomena in Earth’s fluids have nothing to do with gravity, but rather are an energetic manifestation of the inertial motion of fluids on a planetary scale.
