What causes high and low tides in earths oceans?
The rotation of the Earth and the gravitational pull of the Moon and the Sun.
Why is the moon responsible for predicting tidal movements in the earths oceans?
The moon doesn't predict anything, but scientists do and the gravitational pull of the moon , sun, and the earth determines tidal movements.
Which pulls with greater force on the earth's oceans the sun or the moon?
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.

However, the Moon has a greater effect on the tides.The gravity from the Sun is more than the gravity from the Moon. However, the Moon has a greater effect on the tides.
Does the suns gravity effect the oceans?
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.
A type of high leveled cloud that is very thin and causes a halo effect around earths sun and moon is called?
Cirrostratus
Which out of the moon or the sun is more attracted to the earths ocean?
The moon has a greater effect than the sun on the earths oceans.
What causes high and low tides in earths oceans?
The rotation of the Earth and the gravitational pull of the Moon and the Sun.
Why does the moon gravity have a greater effect on earths oceans tides than the sun gravity?
Mainly because the sun is about 390 times farther away from Earth than the moon is. That means that there's about 153,000 times as much force between us and a piece of mass in the moon as there is between us and the same piece of mass in the sun.

Why does the moon have more gravitational pull on the Earths oceans than the moon if the sun is so massive?
It is because the moon is much closer to the earth. Gravitational pull decreases in proportion to the square of the distance.
How does gravity affect oceans?
Gravity can pull water in and out, causing tide like motions. The gravity of the moon and sun, for example pull on the earths oceans and cause high and low tides.
Why does the moon have a greater affect on tides then the sun does?
Though the Moon is much smaller than the Sun, it is closer to Earth than the Sun. So exerts a greater gravitation effect on Earth's oceans and seas.
When the moon is On the side of earths opposite the sun?
full moon
