What are Lunar Tides?
Tides are created because the Earth and the moon are attracted to each other, just like magnets are attracted to each other. The moon tries to pull at anything on the Earth to bring it closer. But, the Earth is able to hold onto everything except the water. Since the water is always moving, the Earth cannot hold onto it, and the moon is able to pull at it. Each day, there are two high tides and two low tides. The ocean is constantly moving from high tide to low tide, and then back to high tide. There is about 12 hours and 25 minutes between the two high tides.

First of all we need to define what the word tide means. The word "tides" is a term used to define the  rise and fall in sea level with respect to the land, caused by the gravitational attraction of the moon and the sun.

Our 20% project is a project where we commit 20% of our physics class time to a project of our choosing in relation to physics. Group members are; Jeff Vinson, Giles Edwards, and Jacob Lear. In our project we will explain ocean waves, tides, and gravity in relation to the moon.
