Someone please clear this doubt.
The earth rotates from west to east, then why does more water pile up at the western parts of the oceans? Should it not accumulate more on the eastern side???
When you're riding a bike, wind strikes our face. (i.e wind moves in opposite direction of our movement)
Similarly, when earth rotates west to east, Air moves East to West (in opposite direction). With frictional force, air drags the oceanic water with it, hence water moves from east to west, thereby getting accumulated at western part of oceans.
Thats how I remember.
