Tides are caused by gravitational pull of the moon and the sun. The rise and fall of the tides play an important role in the natural world and can have a marked effect on maritime-related activities.

Tides are very long waves that move across the oceans. They are caused by the gravitational forces exerted on the earth by the moon, and to a lesser extent, the sun. ... Gravity pulls the ocean towards the moon and high tide occurs. The bulge on the far side of the Earth is caused by inertia.

Answer:

hlo mate your answer is

Explanation:

Tides are the rhythmic rise and fall of ocean water that occur twice in a day. The strong gravitational pull exerted by the sun and the moon on the earth's surface causes the tides.

Gravity is one major force that creates tides. In 1687, Sir Isaac Newton explained that ocean tides result from the gravitational attraction of the sun and moon on the oceans of the earth (Sumich, J.L., 1996).
