Tides are periodic changes in sea level that are produced by the forces of gravitational attraction of the Sun and the Moon with respect to the Earth. This phenomenon involves the movement of huge masses of water across the surface of our planet, being attracted by the stars that surround us. The force of attraction of the Moon is between 2 and 3 times greater than that of the Sun, due to the proximity of the satellite. According to this, which of the following is correct regarding the tides? a) The tides do not depend on the position of the Moon with respect to the Sun.
b) The variation of the tides is due to movements between the planets with the Earth
c) The rising tide occurs mainly when the Sun, the Earth and the Moon are in the same line of action
d) The Sun generates a gravitational attraction greater than the Moon and therefore generates high tides on Earth.
