there is no other name for a tidal wave, just tidal wave
Another name for a tidal wave is a tsunami. Tsunamis are large ocean waves caused by underwater earthquakes or volcanic eruptions.
Another name for tsunami is tidal wave. They are both huge waves caused by earthquakes. Also, both their sizes depend on where the earthquake's epicenter and focus is. So, they are exactly the same thing.
some advantages of tidal energy are, continuous, predictable energy. Another benefit of tidal power is that it is predictable. The gravitational forces of celestial bodies are not going to stop anytime soon.
i would say earthquakes but there are more reasons edit: Tidal waves are the byproduct of undersea plate tectonics. Subduction zones create large amounts of friction which then in turn create seismic waves which are transferred in to the surrounding sea water and take the form of fast moving waves in the open ocean. When the water becomes more shallow is when you see the classic images of a tsunami or tidal wave.
Tidal Waves
Another name for mechanical waves is elastic waves.
Tidal waves are unpredictable. There is no way at present to capture their energy. We can capture the energy of tides and also of waves, but not of tidal waves.
There are no obvious advantages of tidal waves. The damage they do outweighs anything else.
Tidal waves, current are to name a few.
Tidal waves are unpredictable. There is no way at present to capture their energy. We can capture the energy of tides and also of waves, but not of tidal waves.
no volcanoes cause tidal waves - the plates create land. earthquakes, however, do make tidal waves and tsunamis in the aftermath. look that up instead.
Tidal waves are not used to generate electricity. A tidal wave is a huge wave, rather like a tsunami, that occurs very infrequently, and without warning.Tides are harnessed to produce electricity, and also waves are used, but not tidal waves.
