No idea, quite far away is my guess
Not necessarily. There is a distance, called the Roche limit, at which tidal forces on a moon will exceed the tensile strength of the material the moon is made of, at which point the moon will break into smaller pieces. The Roche limit has nothing to do with the size of the original orbit, other than the fact that the original orbit cannot be inside the Roche limit (or the moon would never have formed in the first place).
The moon has a greater effect than the sun on the earths oceans.
Mars is bigger than Earth's moon. Mars has a diameter of about 4,212 miles, while Earth's moon has a diameter of about 2,159 miles.
the earths gravity holds the moon so it orbits the earth.
The earth's ozone layer does not include the moon. The moon is far beyond.

The minimum distance a moon can orbit a planet is governed by the Roche limit, which is the point at which the gravitational tidal forces from the planet would tear the moon apart due to the difference in gravitational attraction across its body. Beyond the Roche limit, the moon would start to disintegrate.
In our solar system yes, but heres why. The ability for a planet to turn an orbiting body into dust that would become a ring is called the "Roche Limit." Any moon or large asteroid within this range of the planet will be torn up by tidal forces until it becomes a ring. The thing that determines the Roche Limit is the planet's gravity and the tensile strength of the orbiting object. The higher the gravity is, the larger the limit, and the stronger the object, the closer it can be to the planet. The Gas Giants all have large gravitational forces, which allows them to have a much larger Roche Limit. This increases the chances that a moon will fall inside that limit.
The theory is that the moons of a large planet are subject to tidal stresses that attempt to rip the moon apart. The further out the moon, the lower the tidal stresses will be. But too close to the planet, the tidal forces would cause the moon to disintegrate into smaller bodies, which might expand into ring systems. The rings of Saturn are the most elegant, but Jupiter has small rings and both Neptune and Uranus have at least partial rings.
The "Roche limit" is the distance within which a celestial body, like a moon or a planet, can be held together by its own gravity without being torn apart by the gravitational forces of a larger body, such as a planet or a star. If a celestial body gets too close to another massive body and crosses its Roche limit, it can be pulled apart by tidal forces. This concept is important in understanding the stability and structure of celestial bodies in space.
the earths moon helps sustsian the gravity on the earths oceancs keeping them in balance
The Jupiter Roche limit is the distance from Jupiter at which its gravitational pull can break apart a celestial body due to tidal forces. This limit is important because it determines the minimum distance a moon or other object can orbit Jupiter without being torn apart. It helps scientists understand the stability of orbits and the formation of planetary systems.
the moon
The moon.
There is no atmosphere on the Earth's moon.
Neither it is a moon!
Either a Saturn 's moon got destroyed into pieces by a celestial body, or maybe some celestial bodies went within Saturn's roche limit which burst them into pieces too.
