As waves approach the shore, interaction with the sea floor
slows the waves down and the crests of the waves bunch up. They
increase in height as the energy in each wave compresses into a
shorter horizontal distance, but the period of the wave does not
change. Eventually, the waves break.

Terrestrial means on Earth so Earth is the only terrestrial
planet
This is incorrect, the first 4 planets are terrestrial as they
are solidly bound planets. Pluto was also a terrestrial dwarf
planet. Any planet can have moons but due to the gas giants having
larger gravitational forces they have traditionally gathered more
moons. Thusly, no.

How do waves change as they approach the shore
As waves approach the shore, interaction with the sea floor
slows the waves down and the crests of the waves bunch up. They
increase in height as the energy in each wave compresses into a
shorter horizontal distance, but the period of the wave does not
change. Eventually, the waves break.
