What has the greatest effect on the Earth tides why?
The gravitational pull of the moon has the greatest effect on Earth tides. The moon's gravitational force causes bulges in the Earth's oceans, creating high and low tides as the Earth rotates. Other factors, such as the sun's gravity and the shape of the coastline, also play a role in affecting tides.
What is the effect of THE MOON'S GRAVITY PULLS ON EARTH?
The most noticeable effect is the tides.
What are the only two objects that effect tides on earth?
The Sun and the Moon.
Does the planet Venus or Mars effect the Earth's tides?
No, the planets Venus and Mars do not have a significant effect on Earth's tides. The main contributor to Earth's tides is the gravitational pull of the Moon, with the Sun also playing a role. The influence of Venus and Mars on Earth's tides is negligible compared to the influence of the Moon and the Sun.
What causes the patterns of surface currents in the ocean?
The Earth rotating and its tilt of the axis forms the oceans' tides and currents.
How does the moons orbit effect the earth?
The moons gravitational pull on the earth lifts the Earth's oceans causing the ebb and flow of the tides.
What would stop the earth from having tides?
If the Earth (more or less) stopped rotating.
What main effect does the moon have on earth?
The tides.
Does the Coriolis effect influence tides?
No, the Coriolis effect does not directly influence tides. Tides are primarily caused by the gravitational pull of the moon and sun on the Earth's oceans. The Coriolis effect does affect ocean currents and winds, but not tides.
What are tides on Earth doing to the Earth's rotation and to the Moon's orbit around us?
Its really the other way around. The moon is causing the tides on earth. When the moon has different ways of rotating around us sometimes pressure changes and affects the oceans tides. Edit: 1) An effect is to gradually slow down the Earth's rotation. 2) Also the Moon is slowly moving away from the Earth, so its orbit is getting bigger.
What is the Most obvious effect the moon has on the earth?
The tides.

Does moon have effect on Earth?
Yes, the tides is one effect.It moves the tides in and out and looks pretty!
What are the only two objects that effect tides on earth?
The Sun and the Moon.
What forces causes the earth's highest tides in the ocean?
The earth's highest tides are caused by the gravitational pull of the moon and sun on the earth's oceans. When the sun, moon, and earth are aligned during a full moon or new moon, their gravitational forces combine to create higher tides known as spring tides.
Would there still be tides if the earth stopped?
Presumably the question is about the Earth's rotation stopping. Eventually, the Earth WILL almost stop rotating on its axis and will become "tidally locked" with the Moon. Then the Earth Moon system will rotate with each facing the other, in "synchronous rotation". At that time and ignoring other things that might happen first, The Earth would no longer have tides. If you want to be really "picky" the Earth would still be rotating very slowly, in that scenario. If the Earth's rotation could stop completely, there would be some (very slow) tides. Also, there would still be a very small effect caused by the Sun.
