Correct Answer: Two
Solution : The correct option is Two .
Every lunar day, which lasts for 24 hours and 50 minutes, coastal locations experience two high tides and two low tides because of the sun's attraction. Every lunar day, the Earth rotates between two tidal bulges, which causes the tides' periodicity. The time it takes for the water at the beach to change from high to low, or from low to high, is six hours and fifteen minutes.
