Thee are three theories:
1) spin-off:when Earth was young and still cooling, a piece of Earth broke off at the eqautor while Earth was spinning rapidly
2)Capture-Earth captures a passing moon
3)Collision- A planet (orpheus) collided with Earth, creating fragments. The fragements came back together creating the new Earth with a moon. This is the accepted theory.

Which answer is not one of the three theories of the Moon formation?
There are three main theories of how the moon came into existence. The theories are as follows: the moon was captured by Earth's gravitational pull, the moon was originally part of the earth's crust, or the earth and moon formed together out of the primordial nebula.
What has the greatest effect on earths tides?
The moon.
How does the moon and the sun effect the earths oceans?
The gravitational forces of the Sun and Moon, effect the earths oceans by forming tides.
What theory best describes the moon origin?

Explain How is the moon earths satellite?
the moon orbits the earth and one definition of a satellite is "a natural body that revolves around a planet"
What are the two types of eclipse and explain?
Solar - moons shadow falls on earth.Lunar - earths shadow falls on moon.
What are the different scientific theories develop by the scientist to explain the origin of the earth?
Some scientific theories explaining the origin of Earth include the nebular hypothesis, which suggests that the solar system formed from a rotating disk of gas and dust, and the giant impact hypothesis, which proposes that the Moon formed from debris created by a collision between Earth and a Mars-sized protoplanet. Other theories include the core accretion model for planet formation and the theory of planetary migration.
Theory of the origin of the moon?
There are many theories to the creation of the moon. One theory is that it is a part of the Earth. Part of the molten earth that pulled away, but got caught in the gravitational pull of Earth.
Name and discuss the hypothesis for the origin of the Earths moon?
There are several theories out there for the formation of the moon. The current most widely accpeted one is called the Giant Impact Hypothesis. The basic idea is that at some point after the young earth had formed but while the surface was still molten a Mars sized object collided with Earth and the material ejected and began orbiting the Earth. This material later formed the Moon.
What does the earths moon mean?
the earths moon helps sustsian the gravity on the earths oceancs keeping them in balance
Explain y earths shadow covers the entire moon during a lunar eclipse but only a small part during a solar eclipse?
The Earth is larger than the Moon.
Discuss briefly the 4 theories on the origin of the moon?
I think the unanimus answer is that when the earth collided with another planet(putting it on a tilt) a chunk broke off and got caught in the earths magnetic pull. There are no other theories i know of.
What are the problems With the other theories of how the moon formed?
Scientists n there theories are uncertain still of how the moon formed about'
What is the name of the earths planet moon?
the moon
How is the moon so big?
Present theories suggest that the moon was formed when proto-earth and another mars sized body collided. The splatter from the impact coalesced into the moon (which was much closer in to the earth at this point. Since then the moon has mooved farther form the earth as it has slowed the earths rate of spin.
