How does gravity effect the ocean?
The moons gravity pulls on the ocean, creating high and low tides. Depending on where the moon is located in contrast to where you are located, the moons gravity cause a spring tide, which is the largest hight range in high and low tides, and a neap tide, which is the least hight in high and low tides.
