I could hear your unspoken question very clearly. Btw I messed up one piece. One tennis ball rotation is one moon orbit (27 days), not one day. Still same physical concept though.

If you imagine this scenario, having a tennis ball on a string and holding it above your head spinning it like a helicopter rotor. Generally speaking, the tennis hall represents a moon, rope is the gravitational tether between the two, and (with a bit of imagination) your hand are represents the earth. So, when spinning the tennis ball around, the mass of the tennis ball sets a limit on the speed of spinning. One rotation is an earth day. If you had a heavier ball like a basket ball (larger moon) the speed of rotation would be slower because the earth has to sling a heavier moon. Spinning a lighter ball like a ping pong ball (tiny moon) would be so easy that the tiny moon wouldn't have any affect on spinning speed basically. Smaller you get and the moon wouldn't be able to hold itself in the earth's gravity and would fling off in to space. To summarise, larger moon puts a brake on our earth's rotation, Smaller moon would ease pull back on our earth. Two moon's would be wack! Double the werewolves, double the astrology readings. Spooky
