The moon affects how fast the Earth moves by the tides. If the moon disappeared the days would shorten dramatically (6 hours long). The speed of the Earth would cause more natural disasters because it was moving so fast. Life on Earth would not be what it is today without the moon!
asteriods would hit earth,spinning faster,ocean tides reduced etc
No, the weight of the moon rock would not change if it was brought to Earth. Weight is a measure of the force of gravity acting on an object, which would be the same on the moon as it is on Earth. The mass of the rock would stay the same as well.
The length of a "day" on the moon is 29 Earth days.
If the Moon suddenly disappeared, it would have significant effects on Earth. Tides would be much weaker, possibly leading to changes in marine ecosystems. The Moon also plays a role in stabilizing Earth's rotation, so without it, there could be more fluctuation and changes in our climate.
The moon is moving (around the sun) IF the Earth's gravity suddenly stopped, the moon would continue to go around the sun. IF all gravity stopped, the moon would travel in a straight line in whatever direction it was going in at the time.
If gravity suddenly disappeared, the moon would fly out into space in a straight line. If the moon suddenly stopped moving it would fall straight into Earth.
At the instant the centripetal force disappeared, the moon would take off in a straight line into space, and would never be seen or heard from again.

If the moon suddenly disappeared during a full moon phase, you would notice a significant decrease in brightness during the night. The absence of the moon's reflection of sunlight would make the night sky much darker. Tides would also be affected as the gravitational pull of the moon plays a key role in their formation.
The moon is gravitationally bound to the earth.If the sun weren't there to illuminate it, the moon would continue to accompany the earthwherever we went, but we couldn't see it.
No, a metre is a standard measure of length where ever is used.
The motion of the Moon would change from an elliptical orbit to a straight line.
weight
If the moon disappeared while you were looking at it, trust me - it's the clouds :>)
The moon's shape would change with the impact of meteor's, changing the moon's landscape.
The moon is a natural satellite. A meter is a measurement of length. No, the moon is not a measurement of length.
If, by some mysterious process, the gravitational forces between the Earth and moon suddenly disappeared, the moon would continue in the solar orbit in which it already is. But the present relatively small perturbations in that orbit caused by the Earth's presence would smooth out, and the moon's orbit would become truly elliptical, without the small wiggles.
