If the size of the moon were to change, even if the moon somehow got crunched

down to nothing and became a black hole, there would be no effect at all on the

earth's ocean tides.

But if the moon's mass or its distance from earth changed, then either change would

have a big effect on the tides. But in order to calculate the exact effects, we'd need to

know the actual numbers.

Does the amount of iron filings in water effect waves when a magnet passes over?

No, the amount of iron filings in water does not affect waves when a magnet passes over. The iron filings would be attracted to the magnet, creating a visual effect, but they do not disrupt the propagation of waves in the water.


How does wind affect ocean waves?

Gravity can pull water in and out, causing tide like motions. The gravity of the moon and sun, for example pull on the earths oceans and cause high and low tides.
