The Effects of Earth's Gravity on the Moon. Earth exerts an gravitational effect on the moon that is 80 times stronger than the moon's pull on Earth. This massive gravitational pull caused the surface of the moon to bulge toward Earth, similar to how the moon causes large bodies of water on Earth to bulge
The gravitational pull of the Sun on the Earth is greater than the gravitational pull of the Moon, about 180 times as large due its much greater mass, as explained in class. The tides, however, are caused by the differences in gravitational forces by the Moon on opposite sides of the Earth
Winds and ocean currents do not move in straight lines because of the Coriolis Effect.
