It doesn't. It's just that we notice the effect more on water than we do on land, because
water has more "give", and it's pretty hard for land to flow from one place to another.
The substance on Earth that experiences the greatest gravitational pull from the moon is the oceans. The moon's gravitational pull causes the tides as it attracts the water on Earth's surface towards it.
The moon's pull creates tides by exerting a gravitational force on Earth's oceans, causing them to bulge outward. Liquids, like water, can freely flow and respond to this force by moving in response to the tidal pull. In contrast, solids are more rigid and resistant to deformation, so the effects of the moon's pull are less noticeable in them.
The rotation of the Earth and the gravitational pull of the Moon and the Sun.
The gravitational pull of the moon creates tides in the Earth's oceans. As the moon orbits the Earth, its gravity causes the water in the oceans to bulge, creating high and low tides. This connection between the moon and the sea is known as tidal influence.
The moon doesn't predict anything, but scientists do and the gravitational pull of the moon , sun, and the earth determines tidal movements.
Gravitational pull.
It is because the moon is much closer to the earth. Gravitational pull decreases in proportion to the square of the distance.
The oceans shift slightly with the moon's pull, which causes a phenomenon known as tides.
The gravity of the moon
The substance on Earth that experiences the greatest gravitational pull from the moon is the oceans. The moon's gravitational pull causes the tides as it attracts the water on Earth's surface towards it.
Gravity and the pull of the moon are the same thing. The pull of the moon is caused by the moons' gravity.
The moon's pull creates tides by exerting a gravitational force on Earth's oceans, causing them to bulge outward. Liquids, like water, can freely flow and respond to this force by moving in response to the tidal pull. In contrast, solids are more rigid and resistant to deformation, so the effects of the moon's pull are less noticeable in them.
The gravitational pull of the moon on the Earth's oceans.
The oceans are being affected by the gravitational pull of the moon.
Both the Moon's and the Sun's force of gravity "pull" on Earth's land and oceans to create tides ( high tides on both the 'near' side as well as the 'far' side of Earth. Of course, the tidal water moves a lot more than land does, so it is easier to notice. Also, Earth's and Sun's gravity make tides in the land on the Moon, too.
The moon's gravitational pull causes a bulge in the Earth's oceans by attracting water towards it, creating high tides.
Tides are primarily affected by the gravitational force of the moon and the sun acting on Earth's oceans. As the moon orbits the Earth, it creates a gravitational pull that causes the water in the oceans to bulge towards it, creating high tides. When the moon is in a position where its gravitational force is perpendicular to that of the sun, it results in more extreme tides known as spring tides.
