How many hours apart are tides in most places on Earth?
They occur 4 times in a 24hr period 2 high 2 low
How many tides does earth have everyday?
Earth has a total of 4 tides a day 2 high tides and 2 low tides.
Does every location on earth has two high tides per month?
Actually most places, which have a large enough body of water nearby, have 2 high tides per day. Check out related link about Lunar Tides.
What are the tides on earth mainly caused by?
Tides on earth are mainly caused by the moon's gravity and earth's rotation.
What planets influence tides?
None of the planets influence the tides on Earth. Only the moon, which is not a planet, has a major impact on tides on Earth.
Do low tides occur as places on the earth surface pass through the areas of tide bugles?
No. The areas of tidal bulge cause high tides as places on earth pass though them, not lowtides.However, where one has a bulge there must be a trough either side of it and this is where the low tides occur.
Does the earth have tides?
Yes the earth has tides
Do tides control the way the earth spins?
Yes, the tides gradually slow Earth's rotation.Yes, the tides gradually slow Earth's rotation.Yes, the tides gradually slow Earth's rotation.Yes, the tides gradually slow Earth's rotation.

What might explain the fact that water is rising in one area and falling in another?
This is happening because of tides, which happen in the opposite places on Earth at the same time. The magnetic field on the Earth and the Moon are pulling towards each other, causing the tides to rise in one place and fall in another.

What forces causes the earth's highest tides in the ocean?
The gravity of the moon and sun causes the earth's tides. The greatest tides are called 'spring' tides which occur when the earth, moon and sun are aligned. The moon has the greatest effect on our tides because of its proximity.
How many tides happen in the same spot each day?
Most places have two tides in a day. On the Gulf Coast of Florida west of the Apalachicola River, there is one a day and it is measured in inches. A few places on earth may have none.
What is causeing the rotation of the earthsto slow down?
Friction related to the tides. Since the energy that produces the tides comes from the Earth's rotation, it follows that whenever energy is lost in the tides, the Earth's rotation will slow down.Friction related to the tides.
