How many high tides and low tides occur each day

Geography
1 answer:
melisa1 [442]3 years ago
7 0

The correct answer is - two high tides and two low tides.

The high tides and the low tides occur because of the effect of the gravitational pull of the Moon on the water bodies on the Earth. The gravitational pull from the Moon is pulling the waters toward it, resulting in moving of the water from the sides of the planet (compared to the position of the Moon) toward the side where the Moon is, and on the total opposite side of the planet. The high tide occurs when the gravitational pull of the Moon is the strongest, and it occurs on both sides of the planet, the two total opposite places, while in the same time, the sides of the planet experience low tides. As the Moon moves around the Earth, when it reaches the total opposite sides, it causes another high tide and low tide on the same places, resulting in two high tides, and two low tides during a single day.

sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

A. Is lower in elevation than B.

Explanation:

Apart from Latitude, Altitude or elevation is also used in determinations of climate. Higher altitudes or elevation means that there are lower air pressure which means that the atmosphere tends to hold less heat making the weather colder than it would be at sea level at the same latitude.

The reverse is the case at lower altitudes. The air pressure would be high, hence it tends to hold more heat as a result making the temperature higher on thesame latitude for a higher altitude. This is the case of City A. The annual temperature is higher in A because they are in lower altitudes.
