When the moon is full, the earth expierences a spring tide. A spring tide includes High high tides and low, low tides. This is due to the gravitational pull of the sun is cooperating with the moons gravitational pull therefore creating high tides on opposite ends of the earth and the same for the lows.

The tides are primarily caused by the gravitational pull of the moon
The Earth's gravitational attraction to the Moon causes spring tides. The area of Earth closest to the moon will experience the gravitational pull of the moon. The oceans react to this gravitational pull by creating a bulge on the side of Earth that faces the moon.
Yes, the gravitational pull between the Earth and the Moon is what keeps the Moon in orbit around the Earth. This gravitational force is what causes the Moon to travel in a curved path around the Earth rather than moving off into space.
The force that causes ocean tides is primarily the gravitational pull of the moon and to a lesser extent, the sun. As the Earth rotates on its axis while orbiting the sun, the gravitational pull of these celestial bodies causes the water on Earth to bulge, creating high and low tides.
sun and the moon
The gravitational pull of the earth causes a bulge on the opposite side of the moon. The gravitational pull of the earth is greater than the gravitational pull of the sun.
The moon's position males virtually no difference to the strength of its gravitational pull.
The gravitational pull of the moon on the Earth's oceans.
The gravitational pull of the moon.
The moon and it's gravitational pull
The moons gravitational pull is what causes tides.
The position of the moon because of its gravitational pull.
The gravitational pull of the moon.
The moon's gravitational pull on the earth is what causes tides.
It causes the tides (together with the sun).
