the sun has a much smaller effect than the moon. the moon pulls anything toward it wherever it is over earth, which is usually ocean due to the fact that earth is almost all water, so the moon pulls ocean water toward it, causing rougher seas
What else can I help you with?
Why do fisherfolk want to know whether there will de a high tide or low tide?
There will be a high tides and low tides are the effect of the moon's gravitational pull on our ocean
How fast does the Pacific Ocean travel?
I belive you are talking about how much does the ocean get impacted by the gravity of the moon. Depending on the distance of the moon from earth so thats why you get tide in and tide out.
What type of ocean tide currents occur when the sun earth and the moon are aligned?
A Spring tide.
What energy results in an ocean tide?
gravitatonal pull by the moon
What is the deepening of the ocean directly below the moon?
High tide.
What two objects in your sky cause ocean tide?
The sun and the moon.
What are the strongest tide making effect?
The moon has the strongest effect on the earths tides.
What is a moon tide?
On Earth, ocean tides are caused by the moon. This is because the moon is pulling on the surface of the Earth and the water in the ocean which is closer to the moon is pulled upward. This upward surge causes high tide while on the opposite side of the Earth (where the moon is furthest from the water) there is a low tide.
What is the force that creates the greatest effect on the ocean tide?
my face
What force dominates the ocean tide?
i think its the moon and its gravitational pull
What evidence do you have that the moon pulls on the earth at all?
The changes in ocean tides are caused by the moon's gravitational pull on the earth. The moon actually pulls the earth away from the ocean, which cause low tide on the side of the planet where the moon is, and high tide on the opposite side.
How does the moon causes tide?
The Moon's gravity pulls ocean water toward it while the Earth revolves.
