The moon causes waves to form in the water. When the moon comes close the Earth`s underside the gravity from the moon lashes out, because that gravity gets so close the waves respond to the unknown energy.

What force causes waves?
That varies, depending on the type of waves - e.g., water waves, sound waves, electromagnetic waves, etc.
How does wind cause waves?
Wind causes waves as it disrupts the water's surface. Its constant and repetitive motion is transferred into the water which generates waves.
What restoring forces causes waves?
That varies, depending on the type of waves - e.g., water waves, sound waves, electromagnetic waves, etc.
How does the energy from the sun produce waves?
It warms the atmosphere which causes convection and wind. The wind blowing across the surface of water causes waves.
What are four causes of erosion?
Water, Wind, Ice, and Waves
What causes ocean waves currents?
Winds and subsea movement of water.
What kind of waves are water waves?
Water waves are formed by the force of the wind agianst the water and air goes forward and finally develops a circular motion. This motion causes a pressure to go down on the surface at its front, and pressure going up and this causes the surface to take on the form of a wave.
How many earthquakes happen in water?
The plates under the ocean moves which causes the water to have shock waves.
What causes waves in the rock layers?
depending on the rock. sedimentary rocks are formed under water and may have water wave ripples. metamorphic rock has been pressed into waves. igneous rocks flowed in waves
What causes waves to break as they approach shore?
the water becoming gradually more shallow..
Why does the water level rise after tsunami?
An under water earthquake precedes a tsunami. Earthquake causes seismic waves which set up the water in motion with a large force. This causes a tsunami.
What does water have that is greater than air which causes sound waves to travel faster in water than in air?
Bulk modulus.
