High tide is when the sun and moon are on opposite sides of the earth giving a slight gravitational pull. Which then compresses the other two side of the earth giving you low tides...
The most noticeable effect is the tides.
the pull of the moon's gravity
Earth's tides are caused by the Moon's gravity (in combination with the Sun's).
The main effect is the tides, Without the Moon's gravity the tides would be about one quarter as high as they are now, they would be the same every day, and there would be no spring tides or neap tides.
It is the effect of the moon's gravity on earth's oceans.
The gravity from the Sun is more than the gravity from the Moon. However, the Moon has a greater effect on the tides.The gravity from the Sun is more than the gravity from the Moon.

The moons gravity 'pulls' the earths water creating a 'tide.'
No. The moon's gravity only affects the ocean tides. Interesting question though.
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. I hope this helps. :)
Yes! Just like the Moon, the Sun participates in the creation of tides. The Sun's role in tides is less than that of the Moon, though.
The tidal effect (guess where it got that name) caused by the gravity of the Sun and Moon.
Gravity is what causes the tides in the first place. The tides are caused by the fact that the Moon attracts the Earth stronger on one side (the side that is closer to the Moon) than on the other side. To a lesser degree, the Sun's gravitation causes the same effect.
