The blue line oval around the Earth represents the Earth’s oceans. What do you notice about the position of the bulge as the Moon orbits Earth?

Respuesta :

Answer:The same side of the moon always faces Earth, but the bulge does move around a few inches over time, wobbling and following Earth's pull like a magnet, as the moon shifts slightly during its orbit.

(ps if this helps plz mark brainliest).

Position of bulge as the Moon orbits Earth:

The gravity of the moon affects ocean tides on the Earth, gravity from Earth affects the moon. But because the moon lacks an ocean, Earth pulls on its crust, creating a tidal bulge at the line that points toward Earth.

  1. On the “near” side of the Earth (the side facing the moon), the gravitational force of the moon pulls the ocean's waters toward it, creating one bulge.
  2. On the far side of the Earth, inertia dominates, creating a second bulge. In this way the combination of gravity and inertia create two bulges of water.
