As dis!#ayed in the introduction$ tides are the rises and a##s o sea #e"e# caused )y the
com)ined eect o rotation o the earth and the gra"itation o the moon and the sun.;t is <ust
#i1e the sine or cosine !eriod unctions which ha"e a !eriod im!acted )y the regu#ar changes.
0owe"er$ changes o tides are aected )y !#enty o actors . Besides rotation o the earth
and the gra"itation o the moon and the sun $ weather a#so has an im!act on the chang o
tide.Thereore$!eriod unctions can not demonstrate the ru#e#ess changs o tides which are
in#uencede )y weather or some other actors e+act#y.
Assumption :
A## o the data was co##ected correct#y.
=uring these days $ weather were a#ways the same.
The correct data is the essentia# condition and unchanged weather wou#d not ini#uence the

Strengths and limitations:
