Detailed explanation-1: -The moon’s gravitational pull generates something called the tidal force. The gravitational force results in the tidal force resulting in high waves on the shores of water bodies. As the Earth rotates, various region of the Earth passes through both of these bulges each day.

Detailed explanation-2: -High tides and low tides are caused by the moon. The moon’s gravitational pull generates something called the tidal force. The tidal force causes Earth-and its water-to bulge out on the side closest to the moon and the side farthest from the moon. These bulges of water are high tides.

Detailed explanation-3: -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.

Detailed explanation-4: -The moon’s gravitational pull on the Earth is the main cause of the rise and fall of ocean tides. The moon’s gravitational pull causes two bulges of water on the Earth’s oceans-one where ocean waters face the moon and the pull is strongest and one where ocean waters face away from the moon and the pull is weakest.

Detailed explanation-5: -The gravitational pull of the sun and moon on the earth also causes waves. These waves are tides or, in other words, tidal waves. It is a common misconception that a tidal wave is also a tsunami. The cause of tsunamis are not related to tide information at all but can occur in any tidal state.
