It is because the moon is much closer to the earth. Gravitational pull decreases in proportion to the square of the distance.
The moon has a greater effect than the sun on the earths oceans.
ahhh now.... When a spacecraft leaves earths atmoshere it does not leave earths gravitational pull! the moon itself is in earths gravitational pull. which is what stops the moon from floating away so as far as i can imagine if you put a space craft on the moon you have not left earths gravitational pull or the E.G.P
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.
Mutual gravitational forces between the Earth and Moon are.
No. Pluto is actually smaller then Our Moon, Therefor Less gravitational Pull.
The gravitational forces of the Sun and Moon, effect the earths oceans by forming tides.
The rotation of the Earth and the gravitational pull of the Moon and the Sun.
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.
The moon is small.
If we did not have the moon, there would be no waves.
The moon has a greater effect than the sun on the earths oceans.
The moon affects the oceans on earth in many ways. It raises tides in oceans. It helps cleaning ocean water.
The gravity of the moon
Earth's oceans bulge primarily on the side of the planet that faces the Moon due to the Moon's gravitational pull, creating a high tide. Additionally, there is a secondary bulge on the opposite side of the Earth, where the gravitational pull is weaker, leading to another high tide. These bulges result in the rise and fall of ocean levels, known as tides, which occur in a regular cycle as the Earth rotates.
The gravitational pull of the moon on the Earth's oceans.
The oceans are being affected by the gravitational pull of the moon.
