Separation of distance between centers of mass of two bodies given gravitational forces

Go Distance between Two Masses = sqrt((([g])*Mass of Body A*Mass of Body B)/Gravitational Forces Between Particles)

Gravitational Forces on particles

Go Gravitational Forces Between Particles = [g]*(Mass of Body A*Mass of Body B/Distance between Two Masses^2)

Distance of point located on surface of Earth to center of Moon

Go Distance of Point = (Mass of the Moon*Universal Constant)/Attractive Force Potentials for Moon

Gravitational constant given radius of Earth and acceleration of gravity

Go Gravitational Constant = ([g]*Mean Radius of the Earth^2)/[Earth-M]

Modified form of epoch accounting for longitude and time meridian corrections Formula

Modified form of the Epoch = Phase Lag+Local and Greenwich Phase Arguments-(Wave Amplitude*Local Time Meridian/15)
κ' = k+pL-(a*LMT/15)

What do you mean by Tidal Force?

The Tidal Force is a gravitational effect that stretches a body along the line towards the center of mass of another body due to a gradient (difference in strength) in gravitational field from the other body; it is responsible for diverse phenomena, including tides, tidal locking, breaking apart of celestial bodies.
