What else can I help you with?
Which has the greatest effect the sun or the moon?
The sun has a greater overall effect on Earth due to its role in providing energy for life, driving weather systems, and impacting climate. The moon's effects, such as causing tides and influencing animal behavior, are significant but more localized compared to the sun's influence.
Which solar system object has the most effect on tides?
hey i think its because of the solar system
Is the moon the only thing that affects tides?
No. Tides on Earth are caused mainly by the Moon, and by the Sun. If the Moon and the Sun are aligned - on the same side, or on opposite sides of the Earth - tides are stronger than when they are at a right angle. There are also tides on other planets, caused by their corresponding moons.
Does the moon effect hurricanes?
No. The moon's gravity only affects the ocean tides. Interesting question though.
Does the moon's gravity affect the earth's gravity?
The effects would only combine for an object outside the Earth-Moon system (such as an asteroid). Otherwise, objects near the Earth and Moon will experience gravitational effects from both. The Earth's gravity holds the Moon in its orbit, and the Moon's gravity affects the Earth, notably causing the ocean tides.
What is the large body affects the ocean's tides?
The moon's pull on gravity affects the ocean's tides.
Do changing tides affect the phases of the moon?
No, the moon affects the tides, but the tides do not affect the moon.
What force most greatly affects the tides?
the magnetic force between the sun and the moon to the earth
What affects tides on the earth?
the moon.
What is the main body that effects tides?
Gravity is the force that creates and affects the tides.
What is the moon's position when it's gravitational pull most strongly affects Earth's tides?
When the moon is in it's New Moon and Full Moon phase it's gravitational pull most strongly affects Earth's tides. These are called Spring Tides which are extremely high and low tides. This occurs because during these moon phases the sun, moon, and earth are in a straight line so the gravitational pull is stronger than usual, therefore, effecting the tides.
What object in the sky has the most significant affect on earths tides?
the moons gravitational pull
What affects the oceans tides on earth?
the moon.
How catching fish affect tides?
The moon affects the tides, so catching fish has nothing to do with it.
Does the moons gravity affects the earth?
It creates the tides.
What do tides do to sunlight?
Tides are unaffected by sunlight. The gravity attraction from the Moon and the Sun, plus the rotation of the Earth is what affects the ebb and flood of the tides.
How does the earth's position affect tides?
It's actually the moon which affects the tides, due to its gravitational pull.
