How does the moon create waves?
The moon's gravitational pull creates ocean tides, which in turn generate waves. When the Earth rotates, the tides move around the planet, causing water to rise and fall in a cyclical pattern that leads to the formation of waves.
What effect will the moon shrinking affect the earths waves?
If the size of the moon were to change, even if the moon somehow got crunched down to nothing and became a black hole, there would be no effect at all on the earth's ocean tides. But if the moon's mass or its distance from earth changed, then either change would have a big effect on the tides. But in order to calculate the exact effects, we'd need to know the actual numbers.
What effect has the moon have on waves?
The moon's gravity causes waves and tides to rise. During a period called 'high tide', the moon is closer to the Earth than usual, and the result is that it's gravity causes ocean waves to be higher than normal.
Why did the moon ring like a bell when a NASA spacecraft crashed into it?
because its hollow!, maybe? haha, the moon is quite mysterious thats for sure, its bigger than makes any sense for the size of our planet. I mean look at the size of the moons of jupiter and saturn, the biggest planets in the solar system, and then we have a similar sized or bigger satellite, than those planets with very powerful gravitation fields, its just weird man.
What effect does the moon have on other planets?
The moon's effect on other planets is minimal compared to its influence on Earth. The moon's gravity can cause slight motions in the planets, but these effects are typically very small due to the planets' larger size and distance from the moon. Overall, the moon primarily affects Earth's tides and to a lesser extent, the movement of celestial bodies within our solar system.
Would there still be waves if there wasn't a moon?
Yes. The creation of waves is unrelated to the Moon. What the Moon creates is tides.
Does the moon effect the earth?
yeah it makes waves
What effect does the gravity of the moon have on the sea?
It creates waves in the sea.
What affects their size of the waves?
The moon, right? I think so anyway.
How does tsunamis effect waves?
As it gets near shores it will increase in size.
How does the moon create waves?
The moon's gravitational pull creates ocean tides, which in turn generate waves. When the Earth rotates, the tides move around the planet, causing water to rise and fall in a cyclical pattern that leads to the formation of waves.
How small does the moon get?
The moon does not increase nor decrease in size. The preceived change in lunar size is due to an optical effect of light passing into the Earth's atmosphere.
How are waves created by the moon?
The moon has a gravity like the earth and therefore as it changes from a full moon to crecent so dose the gravitational pull. It is this gravitational pull on the sea that causes waves and high and low tide. The wind can also have an effect on how strong or high the waves will be
What are the differences between seismic waves on Earth and those on the moon?
on July 1969 we set foot on the moon and created seismic waves (moon quakes) that lasted over an hour that would have lasted only 20-30 seconds on earth(earthquakes). So seismic waves last way longer on the Moon then on Earth.
What are waves and what are the causes of waves?
The Moon are you a Idiot
Why does the moon makes the waves?
the moon makes the waves move with gravitation. the moon pulls all the waves to come it's way using gravitation. and the other reason why the waves move is because the wind blows the waves. Natalie w.
What are three things that effect the size of waves?
Three things that affect the size of waves are wind speed, wind duration, and the fetch (distance over which the wind blows uninterrupted). Stronger winds, longer duration, and longer fetches tend to produce larger waves.
