* The Moon's Gravity: The Moon's gravitational pull is what causes tides. The pull is strongest on the side of Earth facing the Moon, creating a bulge of water (high tide). A corresponding bulge occurs on the opposite side of Earth.
* Earth's Rotation: As Earth rotates, different parts of the ocean experience the Moon's gravitational pull, leading to the rise and fall of tides.
* Tides are not synchronized: Tides are not perfectly synchronized with the Moon's position. Other factors like the Sun's gravity, the shape of the ocean basin, and the Earth's rotation influence the timing and height of tides.
Therefore, there isn't a specific amount of time for all areas of the ocean to "pass under" the Moon. Instead, the ocean experiences a continuous cycle of high and low tides due to the Moon's gravitational influence.
