What would be the impact on Earth if the moon were three times smaller than its current size?

If the moon were three times smaller than its current size, it would likely have a significant impact on Earth. The gravitational pull between the Earth and the moon helps stabilize our planet's rotation and tides. A smaller moon could lead to changes in the Earth's axial tilt, potentially causing shifts in climate patterns and affecting the stability of ecosystems. Additionally, the tides would be less pronounced, which could impact marine life and coastal regions.


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.


Is the tides caused by the moon?

Yes, The moon's gravity pulls the water up and pushes it back down, making what we know as Tides.Yes


What is the difference between neap tide and spring tide?

Oh, what a delightful question! Neap tides happen when the sun, moon, and Earth form a right angle, resulting in milder high and low tides. On the other hand, spring tides occur during a full moon or new moon when the sun and moon align, causing more pronounced high and low tides. Isn't it wonderful how nature dances between gentle and robust rhythms?


How does the occurrence of a full moon affect the height of tides?

The occurrence of a full moon can lead to higher tides, known as spring tides. This happens because the gravitational pull of the moon and sun align during a full moon, creating stronger tidal forces that result in higher high tides and lower low tides.

Why would it be helpful to know the times of tides if you are the captain of a fishing boat?

If you don't know the tides you might get stuck in port when you want to go to sea or be unable to get back into port and get stuck at sea

What time or times of the month will the higher high tides called spring tide occur?

Spring tides occur around the time of the full moon and new moon each month. These are times when the Sun, Moon, and Earth are aligned, creating stronger gravitational forces and leading to higher high tides and lower low tides.

Give one reason why seafarer's like to know the time of high tides and low tides?

So the seafarers will know if they will travel safely or not for instance: the tide is high,,,, the seafarers know it the know that they wont be safe in high tides but in low tides ,the sea level might not be high enough for their boat to ride on safely


What would a boater use a tidal table for?

They would use it to know when the tides are in and out, which could be important for them when they are planning a journey. If they are going into a port with a large boat and the tide was too low, they could run aground. If they are trying to launch a boat from land, they would want a high tide to make it easier. There are lots of other reasons why they would want to know what the tides are at, so the tidal tables would be important for them.


What would the earth be like for the last humans if an asteroid perturbed the Moon's orbit sending it into a decaying orbit into the earth over a long period of time?

The earth would drown in sea water so the humans would you know... The moon creats tides so no tides would drown the eath or dry it out


How will you know the schedule of the different tides?
