What else can I help you with?
If the moon were closer to earth high tides would?
If the moon were closer to Earth, high tides would be higher and occur more frequently due to increased gravitational pull. The closer proximity would enhance the moon's influence on Earth's tides, leading to more pronounced tidal variations.
How would the tides on earth be differrent if the moon revolved around earth in 15 days instead of 30 days?
In that case, the Moon would have to be much closer to Earth (you can calculate the distance using Kepler's Third Law); the tides would be much stronger.
What if the tilt of the Earth's axis was closer to the sun?
Tides would become stronger.
How would the tides on earth be different if the moon resolved around earth in 15 days instead of 30 days?
Mainly, to revolve around the Earth in 15 days, the Moon would have to be closer (you can calculate the ratio using Kepler's Third Law). This would make the tides stronger.
How would a faster moving earth affect the tides?
If Earth moved around the Sun faster, then it would have to be closer to the Sun. This would cause greater, more extreme tides. High tide would be higher and low tide would be lower. ADDED That rather assumes the Earth being not so close that it has lost its water, of course! Mind you, if it was that close we would not exist to worry about it.
What would happen to Earth and tides if the distance between Earth and the Moon increased?
Tides would become stronger.
What would happen to the earth tides if the distance between earth and the moon increased?
Tides would become stronger.
What would happen if there were no tides?
If there were no tides, Earth wouldn't be the same
What happens if the moon gets closer to the earth?
As the moon gets closer, it will have to orbit more rapidly, making the lunar months shorter, and the lunar tides much stonger. At a certain point (officially known as the Roche limit) the moon would be destroyed by the effect of the Earth's tidal force on the moon, and would become a cloud of debris which would gradually turn into a ring around the Earth, much like the rings around Saturn.
What would happen if earth was closer to the sun?
The Earth would have to be a lot closer to the sun to make any difference. Every year, as the Earth goes around its orbit it gets a couple million miles closer to the sun, and then a couple million miles farther away. If you moved the Earth close enough to the sun, it would get warmer, but that would have to be many million miles.
What would earth be like if the moon were closer to the earth?
If the moon were closer to Earth, tides would be much stronger, which could lead to more extreme weather events. The increased gravitational pull may also affect the Earth's rotation, potentially causing changes in the length of days. Additionally, the moon's closer proximity could disrupt communication and navigation systems that rely on satellites orbiting the Earth.
Why is the sun not a major factor in the tides?
The sun does have an influence on the tides, known as spring tides, when it aligns with the moon. However, the moon's proximity and gravitational pull have a greater effect on the tides due to its closer distance to Earth compared to the sun. This results in the moon being the primary factor in the tides we experience on Earth.
