Does high tides and low tides happen every day?
No, not at all. Tides are caused by the gravitational pull of the moon and the sun on the earth's waters. The earth rotates once every 24 hours and the earth/moon system rotates roughly once every 27 days. The complex interaction between the two creates a pattern that repeats roughly every 24 hours and 50 minutes. In other words, the whole pattern of high and low tides shifts by a bit under an hour every day. But there's still more: Within that pattern there oscillations that produce two different high and two different low tides every day, so there's about 6 hours and 12 minutes between any pair of high and low tides.
Which one is complete about every day the moon revolves around the Earth or tides rise and fall?
-- The moon takes 27.32 days to revolve around the Earth ... a little less than 4% of one per day. -- There are two high tides and two low tides every 24hours 50minutes ... an average of just under one high or low tide every six hours.
How often do low tides happen?
Twice a day. Same as high tides.
