The depth of water affects wave size. As waves come toward land from the ocean, they are underwater. As the water (and wave) hit the bottom of the ocean approaching land, the wave is pushed up and becomes a very noticable event on the water surface. The more the water depth decreases, the farther the wave is pushed up - that's where those big surfer's waves come from.

If a asteroid hit the world what would the effects be?
The effects would depend on the size of the asteroid, but even if the asteroid was the size of a small house the effects would be devastating. First of all those who live in the area of impact would die in instant destruction. if the asteroid hit water huge tidal waves would be created flooding most of the world, the waves could be up to 3 miles tall maby even taller depending on the size of the asteroid. the sun would also be blackend out because dust would be spewn up into the atmosphere which would stop heat from reaching the planet causeing global cooling
