high tide
The gravitational pull of the moon pulls the ocean up on the shore this is called high tide and when the moon releases the gravitational pull it is called the low tide
Gravity is the force of nature that pulls in Earth's water, keeping it on the surface of the planet. This gravitational force is responsible for the tides and the shape of the ocean basins.
Gravity is determined by mass. Everything with mass has gravitational pull (including you). Planets with more mass have higher gravitational pulls
The changes in ocean tides are caused by the moon's gravitational pull on the earth. The moon actually pulls the earth away from the ocean, which cause low tide on the side of the planet where the moon is, and high tide on the opposite side.
The moon's gravitational pull causes tides in Earth's bodies of water. This pull creates two bulges in the ocean, leading to high and low tides. The tides are strongest during full and new moons when the Earth, moon, and sun are aligned.
The tides are caused by the moon's gravitational pull. The moon pulls the water towards it. The moon also pulls the earth towards it, but just a bit less, so there is a bulge(the tide) in the Earth's ocean's on the side nearest the moon and on the side farthest from the moon.

Gravitational potential energy pulls objects back down
The force that pulls tectonic plates toward each other is known as "slab pull." This occurs when a dense oceanic plate descends into the mantle at a subduction zone, generating a gravitational force that pulls the rest of the plate along with it.
the gravitational pull
The Sun's gravity pulls on the planets, just as Earth's gravity pulls down anything that is not held up by some other force and keeps you and me on the ground. Heavier objects (really, more massive ones) produce a bigger gravitational pull than lighter ones, so as the heavyweight in our solar system, the Sun exerts the strongest gravitational pull.
