Explanation:
Gravity pulls the ocean towards the moon and high tide occurs. The bulge on the far side of the Earth is caused by inertia. The water moving away from the moon resists the gravitational forces that attempt to pull it in the opposite direction.
It's the difference from near to far side that's important in creating tides, not the absolute strength of the gravitational pull. The Sun's impact on the tides is 44 percent that of the Moon, i.e., slightly less than half. When the Moon is in line with one side of the Earth, it pulls on the water, causing a high tide.
