Explanation:
- There will be not much different case will happen in relation to tides or anything that we feel on earth.
- But we would be able to look more of its surface, because at times what is at present the “far side” would be facing us will be same.
- Over the course of a month, its whole surface would be visible to earth.
- During each orbit, it will be interesting to note how we will see the other side.
- If you imagine that there will be a full moon, the same side will face us that currently doing. then during the quarters, the other side would be illuminated and the near side would be darker.

Answer:
If it were spinning twice as fast, we'd also see the moon's entire surface more than once per orbit. ... If it was spinning more than once per orbit, Earth would pull at a slight angle against the moon's direction of rotation, slowing its spin.
