Tidal friction caused by Earth's stretching from the Moon's gravity is gradually slowing down the rotation of Earth.

1. True

Explanation:

The gravitational force of moon give rise to the tides in the sea and also it cause tidal friction. This tidal friction results in the stretching of the earth due to which the rotation of the earth is slowing down.The tides also affect the land and these tides causes the land to rise and fall by a much smaller amount than the oceans.

Every year earth gets an inch closer to the moon so the gravity will have a bigger impact - true

Ithink its convection.hope this plz give brainliest!
