Moon is the only satellite of the earth which is not known to any of us. But some people think that if there was no moon, would there have been such a change in the world? But many of us do not know about the importance of the moon.
Without the moon, the first and most obvious change we'll notice is Earth's night. Because of the moon, we get the light at night. At night, the sun's light is reflected by the moon and reaches the earth, causing the earth to light up at night. But without this moon, our night will be pitch black.
But if there is no moon, only our night life will not change. If there is no moon, our days will also change.
If there was no moon, there would be no tides on earth. We could not see the huge waves of the sea.
As the Earth pulls the Moon gravitationally, so does the gravitational force on the Moon and the Earth. Due to the gravitational force of the moon, the rotation speed of the earth is low. Due to this gravitational force of the moon, the sea water swells and the wind blows on that water, causing waves. Due to the rotation of the earth, when the sea comes towards the moon, high tides are created due to the attraction of the moon, and on the contrary, low tides are created. And on the other two sides, tides are created. Since the earth is rotating, the tides change due to the rotation of the earth. If there was no moon, the current high tides would be about a third smaller and the low tides would be even lower, severely affecting those who depend on the tides for survival.
Then the effect will be on the rotation speed of the earth. Know how?
Suppose you are able to spin around a point vigorously, if you are given a heavy object in your hand, would you be able to spin this way? Of course not. The moon is just playing the role of that heavy object in your hand. Now our day and night are 24 hours long, but if the moon was not there, the day and night would be 6 hours long. So do you understand the importance of the moon?
