The correct answer is option 2: 6:52 AM on Tuesday.

Tides occur due to the gravitational pull of the moon and the sun on the Earth`s oceans. There are two types of tides: high tides and low tides. When the water level is at its highest, it is called high tide, and when it is at its lowest, it is known as low tide. The cycle of high and low tides typically takes about 12 hours and 25 minutes to complete.

In the given question, if a place is affected by the tide at 6:00 AM on Monday, we need to determine when the same place will be affected by ebb. Ebb refers to the outgoing or falling tide, which occurs when the water level recedes.

Since the tide cycle takes approximately 12 hours and 25 minutes, we subtract this duration from the given time of 6:00 AM on Monday. This calculation leads us to 5:35 PM on Monday. However, the question asks for the time when the place will be affected by ebb, which is the opposite of tide. Therefore, we need to add one entire cycle of tides to the calculated time.

Adding another 12 hours and 25 minutes brings us
