At the beginning of the formation of the planets, when Earth was still a boiling hot planet, made of molten rock, another still forming planet, about the size of Mars, crashed into the Earth, ejecting fragments of rocky material that condensed into Earth's only satellite, the moon.
The moons gravitational pull is what causes tides.
The moon causes Tides
The shade of the earth on the moon is what causes the gibbous moon.
The moon's shadow changes its placement due to the moon's orbit around the Earth and the Earth's rotation on its axis. This movement causes the moon's shadow to shift and change its position relative to the Earth.
The pull of the moon's gravity causes Earth's tides.
It is a shodow from the earth.
the moon
False
The moon causes the tides and stabilises earth's rotation. yeah that is right moon is really played a great in stabalising earth.
Nothing does.Simply because the moon does not orbit the sun.The moon orbits Earth, not the sun. And Earth orbits the sun.Gravity is what causes planets and moons to orbit.
the amount of gravity on earth versus the moon
Mutual gravitational forces between the Earth and Moon are.
