the major cause of a tide is when one part of the sea bottom moves down and one part moves up causing a big wave. Tides are also because of the moon's gravity and pull on earth.

∙ 12y agoTides are differences in gravitational pull between two points of a body. Tidal effects on earth are caused by lunar gravity and, to a much lesser extent, solar gravity. The greatest effect of tidal forces are on water levels along ocean coast lines. The ebb and flow of this water is also known as a tide. Other types of water displacements are caused by wind, earthquakes, etc.

How does Moon's gravity causes Tide?
The moon does not Cause tides. How can the moon cause tides when it does not have gravity strong enough to create it's own atmosphere.In this case how can its gravitational pull cause tides on earth,which at distance from the moon
What cause moons gravity?
It causes the tides. Tides are also caused - to a lesser degree - by Sun's gravity.
What are the basic cause of ocean tides?
Tides form due to variations of gravitatinal pull between earth ,moon and sun.
Does moon phases cause tides?
Yes it does because as the moon moves either closer or farther that determines if the tides get bigger or smaller
What effects comes from tides?
Tides change shore lines, transfer food and water via waterways, dispose of waste from waters, can cause floods, wash away items near shore lines, cause seashells and sand ranges to change, and cause fishermen to change their schedules, so that they won't be caught in high tides.
