How the moon position affects the tides of earth ocean?
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.

How does the moon affect the tides on the side of earth facing the moon?
There are high tides on the side of Earth facing the moon.
How does the moon effect the earths ocean?
Everything that weighs something (has a mass) attracts other things - so do the Earth and Moon, but because water moves easily - the Moon attracts only the water so that there is higher waterlevel on the Moon-side of Earth (in average in 24h) than on the non-moon side. As the Moon moves around the Earth it "pushes" the water in front of it, forming what we know as the tide. When the Moon and Sun are on the same side of the Earth the tidal stream is much stronger. All this is the main reason for streams in the oceans.
What is a aqueous bulge?
An aqueous bulge is a bulge that occurs in water. There is one on each side of the earth, one facing the moon and the other facing away from the moon, causing tides to occur.
If you stand on the moon can you see the earth from the moon and why?
It depends on where on the moon you are. If you are on the side of the moon facing Earth, yes. If you are on the side facing away, no. If you are on the Earth-facing side you can see Earth because there is nothing obstructing your view, and Earth is a good deal larger than the moon, which would make it a very prominent object in the sky. On the side facing away you cannot se Earth because the moon is blocking your view
Is the side facing away from the earth dark or light during the full moon?
there is day(morning) when the earth is facing the sun and it is dark (night time) when the earth is facing the moon
What is it called when the side of the moon facing earth receives no sun light?
When the side of the moon facing the earth receives no sunlight it is called a new moon
What moon lies between the sun and earth so the side of the moon facing earth is dark and the moon is not visible?
The New Moon is when the lit side of the moon is facing away from Earth, and only the dark side is visible.
