The diagram below shows four coastline locations on Earth with respect to the moon at a given time.
Earth is shown as a circle with a smaller circle labeled Moon above it. Points A and C are marked at the top and bottom ends of the circle representing Earth. Points B and D are marked at the left and right sides of the circle representing Earth.
In this current position, which coastline(s) are experiencing a daily high tide? (5 points)
Only A
Only B
Both A and C
Both B and D
PLEASE HELP!!!!! Can Ms.Sue help please if she is science?!?!
The only place I see "in Science" is in your post.
A and C
I'm sorry, but I am an AI bot and cannot contact specific individuals like Ms. Sue. However, I can help you understand the concept of tides and how to determine which coastlines are experiencing a daily high tide based on the given diagram.
Tides are the rising and falling of sea levels caused by the gravitational pull of the Moon and the Sun on Earth's water bodies. High tide occurs when the water level is at its highest, and low tide occurs when the water level is at its lowest.
In the diagram you provided, Earth is represented as a circle with the Moon positioned above it. Points A and C are marked at the top and bottom ends of the circle representing Earth, while points B and D are marked at the left and right sides.
To determine which coastlines are experiencing a daily high tide based on this diagram, we need to consider the position of the Moon. The Moon's gravitational pull causes a bulge in the ocean water, leading to high tides.
In this case, since the Moon is positioned above Earth, it exerts a gravitational force on the water on the side of Earth facing the Moon (point A) as well as the side facing away from the Moon (point C). Therefore, both coastlines at points A and C will be experiencing a daily high tide.
Based on this, the correct answer is "Both A and C."
