Most coastal areas on Earth experience two high tides and two low tides every lunar day. What is a lunar day? Our days on Earth are 24-hour solar days, the time that it takes for a specific site on the Earth to rotate from an exact point under the sun to the same point under the sun. A lunar day is the time it takes for a specific site on the Earth to rotate from an exact point under the moon to the same point under the moon. A lunar day is 24 hours and 50 minutes. That means a lunar day is 50 minutes longer than a solar day. If high tide occurs at 8:00 AM, Tuesday, in Savannah, Georgia, at approximately what time will the next high tide occur? A) 8:00 AM Wednesday B) 8:00 PM Tuesday C) 8:25 PM Tuesday D) 8:50 AM Wednesday Elimin
