Answer 1

Answer:

What does this mean?

The moon's gravitational pull generates something called the tidal force. The tidal force causes Earth—and its water—to bulge out on the side closest to the moon and the side farthest from the moon. These bulges of water are high tides.

• What is happening at the beach?

High tides due to the moon.

• How is the Moon responsible?

The moon's gravitational pull generates something called the tidal force.

How long will this last?

High tides occur 12 hours and 25 minutes apart, taking six hours and 12.5 minutes for the water at the shore to go from high to low, and then from low to high.
