Does the moons gravity affect the ocean?
Yes, the moons gravity effects when the tide comes in and goes out.
What is the main substance affected by the moons gravity?
The tides of the ocean.
How does gravity effect the ocean?
The moons gravity pulls on the ocean, creating high and low tides. Depending on where the moon is located in contrast to where you are located, the moons gravity cause a spring tide, which is the largest hight range in high and low tides, and a neap tide, which is the least hight in high and low tides. I hope this helps. :)
What fraction of the moons gravity is the moons gravity?
The moon's gravity is essentially identical to 100% of the moon's gravity, and results in gravitational forces on its surface that average about 16% of the corresponding forces on the Earth's surface.
Planets and moons are kept in orbit by the force of?
Mass and gravity
Does the moons gravity affect the ocean?

What is the main substance affected by the moons gravity?
The tides of the ocean.
How does gravity affect tides?
Tidal movements result mainly from the pull of the moons gravity on the ocean.

Do all of the moons not have gravity?
Everything has gravity, the bigger it is the more it has. Moons DO have gravity, but it might be less than Earth's.
How does the Moon's gravity effects the tides on Earth?
The moons' gravity pulls on the part of the ocean water facing the moon making it higher so that it covers more of the shoreline.
How do you know that gravity is affecting you?
Gravity is affecting everyone I mean we are all on the ground arn't we??
What did Isaac Newton say sbout tides?
the moons gravity pulls on the ocean water as the earth revolves on its axes, causing tides
How do planets get there moons?
by gravity
What is wave and tide?
Well for those of u who must know, waves are ocean currents created by wind. Tides are ocean currents created from the push and the pull of the sun and the moons gravity.

What keeps moons in their orbit?
gravity
