Explain how the moon affects the tides on earth.

The way the moon effects the tides on earth is the gravity between the earth and moon and I would go into more detail but that would take all day

First of all, tide is the rise and fall of water caused by gravitational forces of the moon and sun on the oceans of the earth. Generally speaking, tidal cycles contain two high tides and two low tides each day. During the time between high and low tide there will obviously be current flow.
