Both the Moon's and the Sun's force of gravity "pull" on Earth's land and oceans to create tides ( high tides on both the 'near' side as well as the 'far' side of Earth.
Of course, the tidal water moves a lot more than land does, so it is easier to notice. Also, Earth's and Sun's gravity make tides in the land on the Moon, too.
What else can I help you with?
Why does the moon afect the tides?
The moons gravitational pull is what make the tides high/low.
Does the earth's gravity make the moons gravity?
No it doesn't, earth's gravity is only making the moon orbiting the earth not give the moon gravity.
What makes the tide?
gravitational forces of gravity from the moon pull on the tides and make waves... and wind obviously
How a wave is made?
the moon's gravity pulls at the ocean makeing tides wich in turn make waves
Are the planets' moons all spherical?
No. Only the larger moons are spherical. Smaller moons do not have strong enough gravity to make themselves round and so are irregular in shape. Perfect example are Phobos and Deimos, the two tiny moons that orbit Mars.
How would you describe the shape of the majority of the Moon's in our solarsystem?
round, gravity and the lunar paths of moons make them round
Does the moon do anything else but brighten up the sky?
Yes. The moon's gravity pulls on the oceans in order to make tides and waves.
Could it be possible for Pluto to have as many moons as Jupiter?
It is not impossible but Pluto has very much less gravity than Jupiter which means it does not have the muscle to pull in stray bits of junk and make them moons.
What is mercury's number of moon?
Mercury has no moons of it's own.
How often do tides occur in the Chesapeake Bay?
Tides in the Chesapeake Bay occur roughly every 12 hours and 25 minutes, resulting in two high tides and two low tides each day. The bay's unique shape and location make its tides complex and often influenced by factors like wind and currents.
How do tides eccour?
The gravity of the moon pulls very slightly on the oceans to make them rise and fall; the earth's rotation makes this a daily occurrence.
How does gravity make tidal energy?
Tidal energy is generated by the gravitational pull of the moon and the sun on Earth's oceans. This gravitational force causes water to bulge out in certain areas, creating high tides, while other areas experience low tides. As the tides rise and fall, the movement of water can be harnessed using turbines or other technologies to generate electricity. This cyclical process is a renewable energy source that relies on the predictable nature of gravitational forces.
