Detailed Solution

  • The gravitational pull of the sun and moon's kinetic energy on the ocean and the earth causes tides, which are periodic rises and falls in the sea's level. 
  • The energy obtained from the rise and fall of tides is called tidal energy. 
  • Tidal energy is produced from natural processes and continuously replenished so it is a renewable energy source.
  • Heating the ocean's surface does not cause tides, hence it does not describe tidal energy.
