Q. In context with the tides, if a high tide occurs at a particular place at 8.00 AM. What time we can expect the next high tide?
Answer: 8.25 PM
Notes: The timing of high tides is influenced by the gravitational pull of the moon and the sun on Earth's oceans, as well as the geographical location of the place in question. High tides typically occur approximately 12 hours and 25 minutes apart, but this can vary based on local geography and the specific tidal cycle. If a high tide occurs at a particular place at 8:00 AM, you can generally expect the next high tide to occur roughly 12 hours and 25 minutes later. Therefore, you can expect the next high tide around 8:25 PM on the same day.
