            <h1>Tidal Animation: Earth 🌍 and Moon 🌕</h1>

            <canvas id="tide-animation" width="800" height="400"></canvas>

            <p>

                In this animation, the Earth 🌍 and Moon 🌕 are shown with their relative sizes and distances (not to scale). The Moon's gravitational pull causes the water on Earth's surface to bulge, creating tides on the side facing the Moon and the opposite side. This effect is demonstrated by the blue semi-transparent layer around the Earth.

            </p>

            <p>

                The tides are created due to the gravitational interaction between the Earth and Moon. The Moon's gravity pulls on the Earth, causing the water on the Earth's surface to bulge towards the Moon. This bulge is the high tide. On the opposite side of the Earth, another high tide occurs due to the Earth being pulled towards the Moon, while the water on the far side remains behind.

            </p>

            <p>

                The Earth spins on its axis, making it appear as if the tide is moving around the Earth. In reality, it is the Earth's rotation that causes the tides to change throughout the day.

            </p>

            <p>

                This animation is intended as an educational tool for advanced high school students. It helps to visualize and understand the concept of tides and the gravitational interaction between the Earth and Moon.

Calculator Tools allows you to instantly create and generate any simple one page web app for free and immediately have it online to use and share. This means anything! Mini apps, calculators, trackers, tools, games, puzzles, screensavers... anything you can think of that the AI can handle.

The AI uses Javacript, HTML, and CSS programming to code your app up in moments. This currently uses GPT-4 the latest and most powerful version of the OpenAI GPT language model.

What Do You Mean Make An App?

Have you ever just wanted a simple app but didn't want to learn programming or pay someone to make it for you? Calculator Tools is the solution! Just type in your prompt and the AI will generate a simple app for you in seconds. You can then customize it to your liking and share it with your friends.

AI has become so powerful it is that simple these days.

Does This Use ChatGPT?

It uses GPT-4 which is the most powerful model for ChatGPT.

Calculator Tools does not remember things from prompt to prompt, each image is a unique image that does not reference any of the images or prompts previously supplied.

Calculator Tools

Use AI to create any app, tool, calculator, game or website you can imagine!

Tell the AI what you want your app to do, and it will instantly create it for you for free. Make powerful, simple applications, tools, calculators, trackers, games, and so much more.
