Without the earth's rotation, the only natural force controlling oceanic activity would be gravity. The sun and the moon would provide only a minor contribution to ocean behavior because of their distance to the earth. Ocean water would instantly attract towards the part of the earth where the center of the strongest gravity pull is taking place. Tides would centralize to this area and disturbed only by catastrophic weather phenomenon that may be provoked by climatic changes do to the lack of rotation.

If the earth didn't rotate would the earth still have tides?
No
Suppose the gravitation between Earth and the sun suddenly stopped What path would Earth follow?
the earth would rotate the moon or the next closest planet
What if the earth had no low or high tides?
Then we would die i doubt that any thing drastic would happen probably not as wet sand at beaches :D
How would earth landforms and bodies of water would be different if the proportions was reversed?
there would be no water and no land and the earth would not exist anymore
How would earth be different if its crust didn't move and it lacked tectonic plates?
The earth would be flat, and probably devoid of life.
If the earth didn't rotate would the earth still have tides?
No
What whould happen if you had no moon?
if there were no moon, there would be no light in the sky at night (earth would be a lot darker at night, earth's days would be longer (earth will rotate slower), and there will be no tides (the moon pulls the tides)
How would life on earth be different if you did not have a moon orbiting the earth?
there will not be water tides
If there were oceans on the moon would they have tides?
No. The Moon doesn't rotate with respect to Earth; the same side of the Moon always faces the Earth. So even if there were oceans with liquid water, there wouldn't be rising and falling tides as we have here.
What would happen if earth had tow moons?
It would be brighter then just a moon, and tides would be different.
If the moon were closer to earth high tides would?
If the Moon were closer to the Earth, the high tides would be higher, and the low tides would be lower.
How would day and night be different if earth didn't rotate?
There would be no cycle of day and night.
What would happen if there were no tides?
If there were no tides, Earth wouldn't be the same
What would happen to Earth and tides if the distance between Earth and the Moon increased?
Tides would become stronger.
What would happen to the earth tides if the distance between earth and the moon increased?
Tides would become stronger.
How would the tides on earth be different if the moon around earth in 15 days instead of 30 days?
If the moon moved around the earth faster, while the earth maintained the same rotational speed, the period between spring and neap tides would be less.
How would the tides on earth be different if the moon revolves around earth in 15 days instead of 30?
If the moon moved around the earth faster, while the earth maintained the same rotational speed, the period between spring and neap tides would be less.
