Does the moons gravity affect the ocean?
Yes, the moons gravity effects when the tide comes in and goes out.
What is the main substance affected by the moons gravity?
The tides of the ocean.
How does gravity effect the ocean?
The moons gravity pulls on the ocean, creating high and low tides. Depending on where the moon is located in contrast to where you are located, the moons gravity cause a spring tide, which is the largest hight range in high and low tides, and a neap tide, which is the least hight in high and low tides. I hope this helps. :)
What is a large ocean wave caused by gravity of the sun and moon called?
Tide
The rising and falling of the ocean surface caused by the moon's pullof gravity is what?
You are thinking of the tides. However, they are not caused by the Moon alone, but by the combined pulls of the Sun and Moon.
Does the moons gravity affect the ocean?
Yes, the moons gravity effects when the tide comes in and goes out.
What is the main substance affected by the moons gravity?
The tides of the ocean.
Why is gravitation a example of a non contact force?
Because gravity can pull on stuff without touching it. Ocean tides are caused by the Moon's gravity pulling on the water, and that sure isn't touching.
How does gravity affect tides?
Tidal movements result mainly from the pull of the moons gravity on the ocean.
What is the rising she falling off the ocean surface caused by the moon pull off gravity?
Gravity and the pull of the moon are the same thing. The pull of the moon is caused by the moons' gravity.
What ocean motion is caused by gravity?
no
What CASSES ocean tide?
the moon and the earths gravity pulling each other

Why does europa have water?
The water in the ocean could possibly be kept warm by heat coming from inside Europa.
Which is the most common source of energy for surface ocean waves?
Usually waves in the ocean are caused by wind since out in the ocean there is nothing to block, or slow down the wind because there's obviously no buildings or people usually around so the wind can be stronger and faster creating waves in the water.
How does the Moon's gravity effects the tides on Earth?
The moons' gravity pulls on the part of the ocean water facing the moon making it higher so that it covers more of the shoreline.
What is a large ocean wave caused by gravity of the sun and moon called?
Tide
