The Moon passes over a particular spot approximately every 23 hours and 10 minutes. A full cycle of tides happens TWICE in one of these lunar cycles.

What is 90 percent of Earths gravity?
8,9 m/s2 The gravitational attraction on the surface of Venus.
What is the gravitation pull on Ceres the Dwarf Planet?
It's about 0.028g, or 2.8% of earths surface gravitational pull of 1g
Why is the gravitational potential energy of an objects 1 meter above the moons surface less than its potential energy 1 meter above Earths surface?
because the value of gravitational force of earth is greater than that of moon.
What is Venus' gravity compared to earth?
The gravity on the surface of Venus is 0.904 of that on the surface of Earth. You may find the related link below useful.
What is the gravitational pull?
Less than one tenth (1/10) of the earths gravitational pull.
How is nitrogen in the atrmosphere brought to the earth's surface?
nitrogen is brought to earths surface by the gravitational pull of zero gravity
What is 90 percent of Earths gravity?
8,9 m/s2 The gravitational attraction on the surface of Venus.
About how much is the Moon's gravitational force compares to the earths?
The weight of any object on the surface of the moon is 16.55% of its weight on the surface of the Earth.
Ignoring air resistance what is the minimum initial speed a projectile must have at the Earths surface if the projectile is to escape the Earths gravitational pull?
8km/s
What is potential energy dependent upon an objects weight and distance from earths surface?
Gravitational potential energy.
What is the gravitational force on any object near the earths surface?
Force (newtons) = mass (kg) * acceleration (m/s/s) > Acceleration at earths surface radius = 9.82 m/s/s
What is the gravitation pull on Ceres the Dwarf Planet?
It's about 0.028g, or 2.8% of earths surface gravitational pull of 1g
What is the distance from earths surface for zero gravity of an object?
For absolute zero gravitational attraction - Infinity. The gravitational attraction due to the Earth is also zero at the centre of the Earth.
Is it true that tides are created by the difference between the gravitational force at Earths surface and at Earths center?
Yes, that's basically what causes tides. ===================== And the moon. Lets not forget its role.
Where do you experience more gravity on earths surface or earths center?
on the surfaceNote:Since the earth's composition is not homogeneous, the gravitational acceleration onthe surface is probably less than what it is some small distance below the surface,but it's certainly greater than at the center.
What is the type of potential energy dependent upon an object's weight and distance from earths surface?
That is called gravitational potential energy.
Why can you only see one side of the moon from the earths surface?
because of the earth and moon's magnetic field and gravitational pull
