Tides are caused by

• strong winds that blow over ocean waters.
• the interaction of Earth, the moon and the sun.
• the shifting of the plates on the ocean floor.
• variations in the salinity of ocean water

• stays the same
• i don't know

What would happen to your weight if Earth's mass was cut in half?

• increase because gravitational force increases
• decrease because gravitational force decreases
• decrease because gravitational force increases
