What else can I help you with?
What causes the rise and fall of the tides?
The position of the moon because of its gravitational pull.
What are 4 causes of mechanical energy?
Kinetic energy from an object's motion. Potential energy stored in an object's position or shape. Elastic energy stored in a deformed object that can return to its original shape. Gravitational energy associated with an object's position in a gravitational field.
What causes the Moon's gravitational fields?
Gravitational fields are caused by masses.
What causes the gravitational force of the moon and the earth?
The distortion of spacetime in response to their respective masses causes their respective gravitational forces.
Why do stars wobble?
Stars wobble due to the gravitational influence of the planets orbiting them. As planets orbit their stars, their gravitational pull causes the stars to move slightly in response. Scientists can detect this wobble in a star's position, which provides information about the planets orbiting it.
What is the property of a body that causes it to have weight in a gravitational field?
The mass of a body is the property that causes it to have weight in a gravitational field. Weight is the gravitational force exerted on an object, and it is directly proportional to the mass of the object.
What causes a bulge to be created on the opposite side of the moon?
The gravitational pull of the earth causes a bulge on the opposite side of the moon. The gravitational pull of the earth is greater than the gravitational pull of the sun.
What causes increased tidal volume?
The position of the moon & sun relative to the potion of the Earth experiencing the tidal change. The moon and sun both exert gravitational pull on the oceans.
What does the Moon's gravitational pull causes?
sun and the moon
Who causes the tides?
The tides are caused by the moon's gravitational force.
What causes the energy changes from kinetic to potential?
The energy changes from kinetic to potential when an object's motion is converted into gravitational potential energy due to its change in height or position in a gravitational field. This can happen, for example, when an object is lifted against gravity or when an object reaches the peak of its motion in a pendulum swing.
What causes a tide to occur?
The gravitational pull of the moon on the Earth's oceans.
