Gravitational force is the main cause of high and low tides on Earth. The diagram shows the location of two 1-kg masses of water on Earth at A and B. What is the correct expression for calculating the ratio of the force of gravity of the Moon on a 1- kg mass of water at A (nearest the Moon) compared to the force of gravity on the same mass of water at B (farthest from the Moon)? b.
