If a place is affected by Tide at 6.00 AM Monday , normally at what time the same place will be affected by Ebb?

Tides are primarily governed by the lunar day, which lasts 24 hours and 50 minutes [4]. In a standard semi-diurnal tidal pattern, there are two high tides and two low tides within this period [3]. Consequently, high tides occur approximately every 12 hours and 25 minutes [2]. The 'ebb' refers to the period when the water level is falling from high tide to low tide [3]. The time interval between a high tide and the subsequent low tide (ebb) is exactly half of the semi-diurnal interval, which is 6 hours and 12.5 minutes [4]. If a high tide occurs at 6:00 AM on Monday, the following low tide (ebb) will occur 6 hours and 12.5 minutes later. Adding this duration to 6:00 AM results in 12:12:30 PM, which is approximately 12:13 PM on Monday [4].
