'Twas what I was thinking as well.

OpenStudy (pinkcandyrosez882):

Sorry maybe Moon and earth I think

jabez177 (jabez177):

^ I meant that one.

OpenStudy (truwhovian11):

ok but i wanna hear the rest of the explinations so that i dont get it wrong

OpenStudy (pinkcandyrosez882):

Because the moon affects the tides based on where it's at and then the earth's gravity probably pulls it back down. I could be wrong so if you want I can try to find more info on it.

OpenStudy (truwhovian11):

@Awolflover1 r u going 2 help 2

OpenStudy (truwhovian11):

ok thx

jabez177 (jabez177):

The gravitational attraction between the Earth and the moon is strongest on the side of the Earth that happens to be facing the moon, simply because it is closer. This attraction causes the water on this “near side” of Earth to be pulled toward the moon. As gravitational force acts to draw the water closer to the moon, inertia attempts to keep the water in place. But the gravitational force exceeds it and the water is pulled toward the moon, causing a “bulge” of water on the near side toward the moon (Ross, D.A., 1995).

^^^^

jabez177 (jabez177):

Gravity is a major force responsible for creating tides. Inertia, acts to counterbalance gravity. It is the tendency of moving objects to continue moving in a straight line. Together, gravity and inertia are responsible for the creation of two major tidal bulges on the Earth (Ross, D.A., 1995).

Is that okay? :)
