What else can I help you with?
Where is a place were high and low tides happen?
sea shore
What is the area of shore where the tides occur?
It is known as the tidal zone.
What is the rise and fall of the water along the ocean shore?
Tides
What controls ocean tides?
the moon is the main factor behind the oceans tides.
Are the tides caused by the solar wind blowing water against the shore?
No. The tides are the result of the gravitational attraction between the water, the sun, and the moon.
Are daily low and high tides easy to tell apart?
Yes, daily low tides are characterized by the water being at its lowest point along the shore, whereas daily high tides are characterized by the water reaching its highest point along the shore. This difference in water level makes it easy to distinguish between the two tides.
What are called neap and ebb?
Neap tides occur when the sun and moon are at right angles to each other, resulting in lower high tides and higher low tides. Ebb tides refer to the outgoing or falling tide as water moves away from the shore.
Are the heavy waves that are caused by hurricanes called rip tides?
Hurricanes do produce rip tides, but rip tides are not waves. They are strong currents near the shore that take water and anyone caught in them out to sea.
How many high tides do most places have along the shore in a day?
Most places along the shore experience two high tides in a day due to the gravitational pull of the moon. This pattern of two high tides and two low tides in a 24-hour period is known as a semi-diurnal tide.
How many waves are in one day?
There are typically two high tides and two low tides in one day, resulting in four waves. This pattern is due to the gravitational pull of the moon and sun on Earth's oceans causing the water to bulge and recede.
What effects comes from tides?
Tides change shore lines, transfer food and water via waterways, dispose of waste from waters, can cause floods, wash away items near shore lines, cause seashells and sand ranges to change, and cause fishermen to change their schedules, so that they won't be caught in high tides.
Where is a place that has tides?
Any place with a shore to an ocean other then the Mediterranean e.g Plymouth UK
