Tides are the result of lunar (and solar) gravity.
Tides are the result of lunar (and solar) gravity.
Tides result from differences in the gravitational forces exerted at different points on the Earth's surface by another body (such as the Moon).
Mass and Earth's gravity
Yes, Tides are periodic rises and falls of large bodies of water. Tides are caused by the gravitational interaction between the Earth and the Moon. The gravitational attraction of the moon causes the oceans to bulge out in the direction of the moon. Another bulge occurs on the opposite side, since the Earth is also being pulled toward the moon
The gravitational force exerted by the moon and the sun on Earth's oceans causes tides to occur. The moon's gravitational pull is stronger than the sun's, resulting in two high tides and two low tides each day.
Tides on Earth are caused by the gravity of the moon and, to a lesser degree, the sun.
Tides on Earth are mainly caused by the gravitational forces exerted by the Moon and the Sun. The gravitational pull of these celestial bodies creates bulges of water on Earth's surface, resulting in the regular rise and fall of the ocean levels.
The gravitational force exerted by the moon is the primary force that creates tides on Earth. The sun also contributes to tidal forces, but to a lesser extent than the moon. The interaction of these gravitational forces with Earth's rotation results in the daily patterns of tides.
The Moon's Gravity Causes the waves to form.
