Wherever the moon is, the mass of water on Earth facing AND opposite of the Moon are pulled outwards because of the Moon's gravity.
The mass of water facing the Moon is pulled out because its gravity is stronger there.
Thhe mass of water facing AWAY from the moon is pulled out because of the LACK of moon gravity on it, if that makes sense.
Wherever is not facing the moon or directly away from the moon has low tides because the moon's gravity does not much affect that area and the water from there rushes to the areas facing and facing away from the moon.
What else can I help you with?
What affects does the moon have on earths oceans?
The moon affects the oceans on earth in many ways. It raises tides in oceans. It helps cleaning ocean water.
What are ocean currents made of?
its the natural flow of of water causes by the earths magnetic field from it rotation which thus interacts with the moons gravitational pull called"TIDES"
Why does the position of Jupiter not strongly affect the ocean tides?
Because the moons tide is stronger than jupiters, And jupiter is farther from earth
Does the moons gravity affect the ocean?
Yes, the Moon's gravity affects the ocean through tidal forces, causing the oceans to bulge out on the sides facing the Moon and on the opposite side. This results in the regular rise and fall of sea levels known as tides.
Why are waves in the ocean?
cuz. whys the sky blue? dont answer that. lol i dunno, the moons effect on the earths gravity moves the ocean and that creates waves :D sometime its the wind or a earthquake or the underground volcano by the heat. NO! well maybe that as well
