The tides are caused by the gravitational attraction of the moon, and to a lesser degree, the gravitational attraction of the sun, on the oceans.

How does newton's law of universal gravitation relate to hockey?

Newton's law of universal gravitation describes the force of gravity between two objects with mass. In hockey, gravity affects the movement of the puck and players on the ice surface. Players need to consider gravity when shooting, passing, and skating to anticipate how the puck and their movements will be influenced by gravitational forces.

How does distance an mass relate to the universal law of gravitation?

The universal law of gravitation states that the force of gravity between two objects is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between their centers. This means that as the distance between two objects increases, the force of gravity between them decreases, and as the masses of the objects increase, the force of gravity between them also increases.
