the gravitational pull would have less of an effect because it's moving at a faster speed. And since the gravitational pull is what causes the earth's tides, then they would most likely be less effected.

What is the effect of THE MOON'S GRAVITY PULLS ON EARTH?
The most noticeable effect is the tides.
What are the only two objects that effect tides on earth?
The Sun and the Moon.
What causes the patterns of surface currents in the ocean?
The Earth rotating and its tilt of the axis forms the oceans' tides and currents.
What is the greatest effect on tides on earth?
What is the volcanic peaks on the ocean floor called
Does the planet Venus or Mars effect the Earth's tides?
No. The tides are caused from the gravity of the moon. Venus and Mars are too far away to make any difference to the tides
How does the moons orbit effect the earth?
The moons gravitational pull on the earth lifts the Earth's oceans causing the ebb and flow of the tides.
What would stop the earth from having tides?
If the Earth (more or less) stopped rotating.
What forces causes the earth's highest tides in the ocean?
The gravity of the moon and sun causes the earth's tides. The greatest tides are called 'spring' tides which occur when the earth, moon and sun are aligned. The moon has the greatest effect on our tides because of its proximity.
What main effect does the moon have on earth?
The tides.
What is the Most obvious effect the moon has on the earth?
The tides.
What are tides on Earth doing to the Earth's rotation and to the Moon's orbit around us?
Its really the other way around. The moon is causing the tides on earth. When the moon has different ways of rotating around us sometimes pressure changes and affects the oceans tides. Edit: 1) An effect is to gradually slow down the Earth's rotation. 2) Also the Moon is slowly moving away from the Earth, so its orbit is getting bigger.
What is the effect of THE MOON'S GRAVITY PULLS ON EARTH?
The most noticeable effect is the tides.
Does moon have effect on Earth?
Yes, the tides is one effect.It moves the tides in and out and looks pretty!
What are the only two objects that effect tides on earth?
The Sun and the Moon.
Would there still be tides if the earth stopped?
Presumably the question is about the Earth's rotation stopping. Eventually, the Earth WILL almost stop rotating on its axis and will become "tidally locked" with the Moon. Then the Earth Moon system will rotate with each facing the other, in "synchronous rotation". At that time and ignoring other things that might happen first, The Earth would no longer have tides. If you want to be really "picky" the Earth would still be rotating very slowly, in that scenario. If the Earth's rotation could stop completely, there would be some (very slow) tides. Also, there would still be a very small effect caused by the Sun.
What has the greatest pulling effect on the tides?
On Earth it's the moon.
What is the effect of spring tide on earth?
What are the effects of spring tides
