Toppr's video: Exploring the Moon Toppr

The moon is a natural satellite of the earth. It revolves around the earth from west to east and completes one such revolution in about 29 ½ days. As we discussed earlier the moon does not generate any of its own light, It reflects the light of the sun. If you have noticed the shape of the moon keeps changing every day. From a full moon to the extent that there is no moon once a month. This is known as the phases of the moon. In total there are 12 phases of the moon. The shape of the moon changes in our skies as per the sunlit portion of the moon as viewed from earth. Tides As I am sure you are of the tides that occur in the seas and oceans i.e. high tides and low tides. The tides are cyclic in nature. But would you believe me if I told you that tides are caused by the moon? This is true. Tides are caused by the gravitational pull of the moon that causes oceans to bulge out in the direction of the moon. And the pull of the earth towards the moon causes the bulge to occur in the opposite direction. Hence we have 2 tides in a day.
