Best Answer

There is a high tide on the side of the Earth that is opposite to the Moon.

This is because of the differences in the strength of the Moon's gravity felt at different places on Earth.

The water on that far side is subject to a smaller gravitational pull than the center of the Earth and is so is "left behind", forming a tidal bulge.

What evidence do you have that the tide goes in and out?

You can see it. Stand in a place close to the sea which looks like the tide reaches (damper and darker coloured sand for example) now wait for the tide to come in (you could be there a while though so best bring tea and sandwhich) and when you get wet..when the tide comes in ..you know the tide does indeed come in and go out..


Is it better to fish during high tide or low tide?

It depends on what you are fishing for and where. Normally the fish come in when the tide does and when the tide goes out so do the fish. It is said that when the tide is dead high or dead low its not very good fishing, but fish can be caught in those situations. We normally look at the tide charts and catch the tide when it is coming in, up to the point of full tide.

Does the ocean tide rise at day or night?

Both. Full tide and low tide varies everyday. The tide takes 6 housr to come in (full) then it stays in for 1/2 an hour then starts going out. It takes 6 hours to go out (low) then it stays out for 1/2 an hour then starts to come in. This cycle continues day after day after day etc. Because the tide stays in or out for half an hour each time then the full tide and low tide times are changing each day.

What is Christmas tide and what is tide in this sense?

You've got this one slightly confused... There is Yule tide, which happens at about Christmas time, this is a paganistic festival which is a way of ending the year, in hope that a new year will come. Kind of a funeral and birth in one go. The 'Tide' in this case is an old English word for time. Christmas tide isn't a proper use of the word tide in this instance.
