The Moon's tide-producing effect on the Earth is gradually slowing the rotation of the Earth, owing to tidal friction. Studies of corals from the Devonian Period indicate that the year was 400 days long in that period. What, if anything, does this indicate about the angular momentum of the Moon in the Devonian Period relative to its value at present?
