Is the moon at apogee near or far from the earth?
Its far, apo means up/away
Why is gravity on the moon not as strong as on earth?
The moon has far less mass than Earth, so the force of gravity will be much lower.
Why is there high tides on the side of Earth farthest from the moon?
The moon pulls on the water AND the earth leaving the water on the far side behind.
Which inner planet has the largest moon?
Earth has the largest moon in the inner solar system by far.

How far along in orbit does the earth move in one day show you the math?
Do the math. Earth moves along approximately 30 kilometers every second. Multiply that by the number of seconds in a day.
Why does the moon looks smaller from the earth?
because the earth is far from the moon
What do the distances of the the moon to the earth and the sun to the earth mean?
"Distance" means how far two object are from one another. In this case, how far the Moon is from Earth, or how far the Sun is from Earth.
Why is it that the earth is not affected by the Moon's gravity?
Earth is affected by the moon's gravity. The moon's gravity exerts just as much force on Earth as Earth's gravity does on the moon, but since Earth is far more massive, it undergoes far less acceleration.
Why can you not stand on earth and see the far side of the moon?
The Moon is tidally locked to Earth; the Moon's "day" and the Moon's month are the same length. So the "near side" of the Moon always faces the Earth, and the "far side" always faces away from Earth.
How for moon from earth?
How FAR is the moon from the Earth? About a quarter of a million miles away. ~250,000 miles.
How far is earth from moon in AU?
The mean distance between the Earth and the moon is 0.00256957312 AU
Why can you see the craters of the moon so clearly on earth?
Because the earth is not very far from the moon
How far is 240000 miles?
From earth to the moon.
Do I weigh more on the moon than I do on earth?
Considerably less because the Moon has far less mass then the Earth hence far weaker gravity.
