We do not observe tides in a community swimming pool because
A)gravitation on the small mass of water is negligibly small.
B)it is shallow compared to the ocean.
C)all parts of it are practically the same distance from the moon.
D)they are masked by the much stronger pull of Earth gravity.
E)the tides are only observed at night.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The gravitational pull from the moon affects large bodies of water like oceans, where there is a significant difference in distance across the body of water. In a swimming pool, all parts are nearly equidistant from the moon, so the tidal effect is negligible.
