How does the current model of the formation of earth's moon differ from the nebular model of moon formation?
In previous models, the moon either formed concurrently with Earth in its accretion disk, or was captured when its orbit crossed that of Earth's and was captured in Earth's gravitational field.
What theory states that the moon formed when a planet sized object collided with earth?
There are four main hypothesis for the formation of the moon. ; Fission hypothesis - The Moon broke off from the Earth ; Capture hypothesis - The Moon was captured ; Co-formation hypothesis - The Moon and Earth were created at the same time ; Giant Impact hypothesis - The Moon was created when a Mars sized object (Theia) crashed into the Earth.
Explain the various stages in the formation of the moon?
The moon formed early in Earth's history when a planet-sized object struck Earth. The resulting debris formed the moon.
Which answer is not one of the three theories of the Moon formation?
There are three main theories of how the moon came into existence. The theories are as follows: the moon was captured by Earth's gravitational pull, the moon was originally part of the earth's crust, or the earth and moon formed together out of the primordial nebula.
What is the age of the moon and earth?
The Earth is 4.567 billion years old. The moon is thought to be a little younger at 4 billion years, since it is believed to be a spin off of the Earth's formation.

What was created first sun or moon?
The sun formed first. The moon was not formed until around after the formation of proto-Earth.
What phenomena proves that the moon revolves around the earth th?
T he appearance of moon regularly in different shapes. Also the day and night formation confirms the revolution of moon round the earth.
Is gravitational force of the earth a factor of seawave formation?
Yes, however very slightly, it's mainly the Moon which effects the seawave formation.
