The diagram below shows the position of the sun, moon, and Earth. The labels A, B, C, and D represent four coastlines on Earth.

As Earth rotates, coastline B moves to where coastline A is. Which statement is correct about coastline B in its new position?

Group of answer choices

1. It will experience a high tide because water is drawn away from the area between the low tides.

2. It will experience a low tide because water is drawn away from the area between the high tides.

3. It will have a low tide because the greatest gravitational pull of the moon is experienced when the coastline is at right angles to the moon.

4. It will have a high tide because the greatest gravitational pull of the moon is experienced when the coastline is aligned with the sun and moon.

Answer: 4 It will have a high tide because the greatest gravitational pull of the moon is experienced when the coastline is aligned with the sun and moon.

Coastline is the area where land and ocean meets. During full moon i.e., when the coastline is aligned with the Sun and Moon, a high tide occurs, due to gravitational pull of the Moon.

What is tide?

Tides are the rise and fall of sea due to many reasons such as gravitational forces.

These forces are exerted by the Moon, the Sun and the Earth's rotation. It can occur due to many reasons including alignment of Moon and Sun with respect to Earth.

When the Earth, the Moon and the Sun align in the given position, it will have a high tide because the greatest gravitational pull of the Moon is experienced when the coastline is aligned with the Sun and Moon.

Thus, the correct option is 4.
