SOLAR SYSTEM

Detailed explanation-1: -Along the seashore, the water rises and spreads onto the land. One high tide always faces the moon, while the other faces away from it. Between these high tides are areas of lower water levels-low tides. The flow of water from high tide to low tide is called an ebb tide.

Detailed explanation-2: -Because the Earth rotates through two tidal “bulges” every lunar day, coastal areas experience two high and two low tides every 24 hours and 50 minutes. High tides occur 12 hours and 25 minutes apart. It takes six hours and 12.5 minutes for the water at the shore to go from high to low, or from low to high.

Detailed explanation-3: -Tides originate in the oceans and progress toward the coastlines where they appear as the regular rise and fall of the sea surface. When the highest part, or crest of the wave reaches a particular location, high tide occurs; low tide corresponds to the lowest part of the wave, or its trough.
