Multiple choice

Consider the following regions:

  1. Gulf of Khambat
  2. Gulf of Kachchh
  3. Sunderbans

The correct sequence of these regions in the descending order of their tidal energy potential is

  1. 1, 2, 3

  2. 3, 2, 1

  3. 3, 1, 2

  4. 1, 3, 2

A Correct answer
Explanation

The Gulf of Khambat has the highest tidal energy potential due to its unique geography and extreme tidal range (up to 11 meters). Gulf of Kachchh ranks second with significant tidal potential. Sunderbans has lower tidal energy potential compared to these two gulfs. The correct descending order is Gulf of Khambat > Gulf of Kachchh > Sunderbans.
