The moon pulls the ocean on the near side of the earth more than it pulls on the center of the earth. The pull on the ocean at the far side of the earth is smaller still. This causes the near ocean to accelerate toward the moon most, the center of the earth less, and the far ocean still less.
Tides are the periodic and predictable rise and fall of the Earthâs ocean surface, caused by gravitational and rotational forces of the Earth, Moon and Sun acting on the water.ides can vary in size, power and frequency due to geographical location and the positions of the Sun and Moon. Generally there are two high tides a day which are the result of the forces generated by the Earth and the Moon.
