The sun’s mass is about 30 million times greater than the moon. Why does the gravitational pull between Earth and the moon affect Earth’s tides more than the gravitational pull between Earth and the sun?

• The moon is more dense than the sun.

• The moon has phases, but the sun does not.

• The moon orbits Earth, but the sun does not.

• The moon is closer to Earth than the sun.
