We know that both Moon and the sun produce our ocean tides. We also know that moon plays the greater role because it is closer. Does its closeness mean it pulls with more gravitational force than the sun on the Earth's oceans?

Explanation

To determine whether the closeness of the Moon means it pulls with more gravitational force than the Sun on the Earth's oceans, we need to analyze the gravitational forces involved.

### Step-by-Step Solution:

1. **Understanding Gravitational Force**:
The gravitational force \( F \) between two masses \( m_1 \) and \( m_2 \) separated by a distance \( r \) is given by Newton's law of gravitation:
\[
F = G \frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}
