Detailed Solution

The tidal waves in the sea are primarily due to the gravitation effect of the moon on earth.
The gravitational force of the Earth, Sun, and Moon creates tidal waves. The sun's and moon's gravitational forces pull on the oceans, causing them to swell on either side of the Earth.
Newton's gravitational law

F = \frac{GMm}{R^{2}}

Where

F

denotes the gravitational force,

G

is the the gravitational constant, M is the mass of an object,

m

is the mass of the other object and

R

is the distance between the two objects.
The gravitational force, which acts between the two objects, is the universal force.
Gravitational force is proportional to the square of the distance between two objects.
The sun's mass is nearly

27 \times 10^{6}

times that of the moon. The Earth-Moon distance is kilometers. The Moon's mass is less than that of the Sun. The distance from the Moon to the Sun is less than the distance from Earth to the Sun.
As a result, the Moon's Force is greater than the Sun's Force.
