Want this question answered?
Tides would become stronger.
The moon would appear much larger in the sky! But seriously, the moon directly affects the ocean tides. If it were much closer, the ocean would rise and flood coastal areas. If the moon were much farther away from Earth, then the ocean tides would quit and the oceans would stagnate, killing all plant and marine life.
Nothing much would happen, the only people to be drastically affected are fisherman and mountain climbers. It would change the tides, and make it much easier for mountaineers to climb!
High tides wouldn't be as high and low tides wouldn't be as low.
The Earth would have to be a lot closer to the sun to make any difference. Every year, as the Earth goes around its orbit it gets a couple million miles closer to the sun, and then a couple million miles farther away. If you moved the Earth close enough to the sun, it would get warmer, but that would have to be many million miles.
Presumming that the Moon doesn't stop, the tides would change about twice a month.
If the Moon were closer to the Earth, the high tides would be higher, and the low tides would be lower.
If there were no tides, Earth wouldn't be the same
Tides would become stronger.

It's entirely reasonable to say that they are, mainly becauseEarth's tides are caused by gravity.2nd Answer:Great answer. It would be fair to say that the Moon's tides (in the ground, since there is no standing water, there) are caused by gravity, also.
Tides are the result of gravitational forces between the Earth and moon. Global warming would little effect on tidal patterns although sea levels can be affected by global warming.
Assuming the Moon and Sun still produce the effects they do today, the tides would be much bigger because the water would have 7 days to move in each direction, rather than the 6 hours it has now.

That is not true: On a flat earth, if the moon was not overhead, it would pull the water towards it and so cause a tide. It is a bit like tides in lakes: many are small enough not to be overly affected by fact that the earth is not flat.
there would be alot of high and low tides
