They ambush things like penguins, seals and small dolphins. They charge headlong at them and either bash into them to stun or kill them, or they throw the smaller meals around to kill them. Also because of its sharp teeth it can rip and shred its enemies.
An orca gets its food by sometimes crashing on ice to get peinguins or seals but can get its food in the water.

What is the relationship between the size of the predator population and the size of the prey population?

Let's put it this way. Say you have a killerwhale and a penguin. Killerwhales are major predators to penguins. Now, say the killerwhale population increases. The penguins would be eaten more by the killerwhales, then causing a population decrease for the penguins. If the population decreases, they're won't be enough penguins, and they most likely will become extinct, as well as causing a population decrease for the killerwhales as well. Whereas, vis versa, they're were a killerwhale population decrease. The penguins would be less hunted, therefore, creating a population increase for the penguins.
