Read the following passage carefully and answer the question No. 16 to 18.
The Moon’s role in causing tides is much higher and more important than that of the Sun. The reason is that the moon enjoys more proximity to the Earth than the Sun. As such its force is greater than that of the sun in attracting the surface water. Tides are of immense importance. In trade, navigation and fishing, tides are very useful. During the high tide, the water depth near the coast goes up and helps big ships to reach the ports. Kandla port in Gujarat and Diamond Harbor in West Bengal owe thier very existence to the tides only. The significance of both London and Kolkata also depends on the tides. Tides also keep the harbors clear of refuse and mind brought down by rivers and thus they do not allow the harbors to be silted. Commonly, the tidal rivers are navigable. For the purpose of generating electricity, tidal waves are harnessed. Tides do not allow the sea water to be frozen by keeping the sea water in motion. Tides are also made use by the fishermen for sailing into the sea returning to the harbour. In countries like Canada, U.K., France and Japan, tidal power stations are set up.
