Thats because on the side of the moon that's facing the Earth, gravity is more powerful on this side, thus, the moon's gravity pulls the ocean's water in this direction, which is called a bulge. On the other side of the moon, inertia is the one that's powerful, this also creates a bulge. These two forces creating bulges at the same time is what causes multiple high tides.

Hope this helps!

aksik [14]

Answer:

Coriolis effect

Explanation:

The Coriolis effect is originated from the force that is generated due to the rotation of the earth. This is commonly known as the Coriolis force. This force is responsible for the formation of clockwise and anticlockwise wind patterns in the northern and the southern hemisphere respectively.

There are various convection cells that are formed in different regions on earth. As the wind blows from a region of high pressure to a region of low pressure, on a large scale, and at the same time, the earth also is rotating, so its path gets curved or bends, due to the effect of Coriolis force.

Thus, the apparent bending of the wind while blowing from one place to another is called the Coriolis effect.
