Can high tide occur everywhere in the world at the same time? Explain.
Ierofanga [76]

Answer: No

Explanation:

The Moon's gravitational forces are strong enough to disrupt this balance by accelerating the water towards the Moon. This causes the water to 'bulge.' As the Moon orbits our planet and as the Earth rotates, the bulge also moves. The areas of the Earth where the bulging occurs experience high tide, and the other areas are subject to a low tide.

Tides occur just over 12 hours apart and cannot be high tide all over at the same time.
