1. Tidal effect: the moon's gravitational force affects the oceans tides.

2. The earth wobbles slightly on its axis due to the force of the moon on the earth.

3. The earth is very slightly lopsided.

4. Electromagnetic forces between the earth and moon interact with each other, although the moon's magnetic field is very weak in comparison to that of the earth.

Is the force of the suns gravity on the moon the same as the suns gravity on earth?

Not particularly. The Earth's rotation around the Solar System is controlled by the Sun but the Moon is mostly controlled by the Earth, so the Sun really has more of an influence on the Earth than the Moon.

How is gravity generated on the moon?

All objects irrespective of size that have a mass have gravity.The moon has very little gravity in comparison to the Earth The moons gravity is around 17% of that on Earth whereas the Suns is 2,800 times that of Earth's The effect of the Moons gravity is easiest to recognise with tides on Earth.


Why do the Moon's gravity have a greater effect on earths ocean tides than the suns gravity?

Even though the suns gravitational pull is stronger than the moons and does infact effect the tides slightly, the moon is close enough to pull the tides more than the sun. Its all distance related.
