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.

Geography's relevance to science and society arises from a distinctive and integrating set of perspectives through which geographers view the world around them. This chapter conveys a sense of what is meant by a geographic perspective, whether it be applied in research, teaching, or practice. Due to space limitations, it does not attempt to cite the many excellent examples of research illustrating geography's perspectives; the citations refer mainly to broad-ranging summaries of geographic research that are intended as resources for further reading.

Taking time to understand geography's perspectives is important because geography can be difficult to place within the family of academic disciplines. Just as all phenomena exist in time and thus have a history, they also exist in space and have a geography. Geography and history are therefore central to understanding our world and have been identified as core subjects in American education. Clearly, this kind of focus tends to cut across the boundaries of other natural and social science disciplines. Consequently, geography is sometimes viewed by those unfamiliar with the discipline as a collection of disparate specialties with no central core or coherence.
