No. The biggest influence on the tides is the moons gravitational pull.

What does the Moon's orbit cause on earth?

The Moon's orbit causes tidal effects on Earth due to its gravitational pull. This leads to the rising and falling of ocean tides. Additionally, the Moon's orbit influences the length and timing of Earth's day as well as the tilt of its axis, affecting our planet's climate and seasons.


What is the Moon's effect on Earths tides?

The Moon's gravitational pull causes tides on Earth. When the Moon is closest to a particular area, it exerts a stronger gravitational force and creates higher tides known as spring tides. When the Moon is farthest away, it creates lower tides known as neap tides.


Can the moon orbit around the sun?

No, the moon orbits around the Earth, not the sun. This is due to the gravitational pull between the Earth and the moon. The moon's orbit around the Earth is what causes its phases and affects tides on Earth.


Do tides change according to the moon?

Yes the moon had a gravitational pull on the earth just like how the earth had the pull on the moon that keeps it in orbit


How does the moon slow Earth's rotation and how does the Earth change the moon's orbit?

The Earth-Moon gravitational interaction that produces the tides is gradually slowing the Earth's rotation. So, the Earth loses angular momentum. That causes the Moon to gain angular momentum. The acceleration of the Moon causes its orbit to slowly get larger. See "related links" below. In the link, look for the headings "Tidal Braking of the Earth" and "Lunar Recession".


Which celestial bodies influences earth tides?

By their gravitational forces and; 3) by their electromagnetic radiation. The Sun affects the Earth by its gravity which keeps the Earth in its orbit, and as I discussed in the section under Moon-Tides, by raising tides in the rocky and watery components of the Earth.


What are Tides on Earth are causes by?

Tides on earth are mainly caused by the moon's gravity and earth's rotation.


How does the moon created a bulge?

The moon has it's own gravitational pull. The earth's gravity keeps the moon in orbit, while the moon's gravity tugs on the earth. This pull from the moon creates a bulge on the earth, especially on the oceans. This pull is what causes the tides to change.


What causes the tides and how tides affect the earth?

The moon They dont


Does the Moon's movements around earth have anything to do with the seasons of the year?

Tides yes, seasons no. The Earths tilt causes the seasons as we orbit the sun.


How does the moon affect the earth's oceans?

The moons gravitational pull is what causes tides.


Why do you have two spring tides and two neap tides?

they are cuased by the moons grasity on earth and the orbit of earth around the sun
