Wave is a movement in the water surface under vertical direction and is caused by wind. The stronger the wind is, so is the wave.

Tide is a natural phenomenon, a regular and periodical oscillation of water. In theory, in terms of physical matter, tide is caused by the gravitational force of the moon and certainly by that of the sun as well.

Neap tide is weak tide occurring when the gravitational forces of the moon and the sun are perpendiculare to one another. It occurs during quarter moons.

Spring tide is strong time occurring when the earth, the sun and the moon are in a line. It occurs in the full and new moon.

How are waves classified in science and what criteria are used to differentiate between different types of waves?

Waves in science are classified based on their properties and how they move. The criteria used to differentiate between different types of waves include their direction of movement, the medium they travel through, and their amplitude and frequency.


What happens when the moon sun and earth are lined up to the waves?

You have Spring Tides


How do you differentiate radio waves of same frequencies?

The radio will always try to capture the strongest signal. The best way to differentiate would be to use a directional antenna. That way you can point it at the station you want, there by making its signal stronger and minimizing the station you don't want by making its signal weaker.


Do the oceans features effect waves and tides?

no oceans do not effect waves and tides


Hiw are tides formed?

tides are waves


Differentiate between transverse and longitudinal waves?

transverse waves are...well.. wavy when compression waves are like a domino affect or like pushing a spring the similarities is that the both transport power from point a to point b however their movement is very different


Is tides the same with waves?

Yes they are, but I think tides are a little smaller than waves, waves can get very dangerous. Scary


What do scientists use to classify seismic waves?

Scientists use characteristics such as wave velocity, propagation mode, and direction of particle motion to classify seismic waves. These properties help differentiate between the different types of waves produced by earthquakes and other seismic events.


Is it true that heavy waves caused by a hurricane is called rip tides?

No. Rip tides are caused by heavy waves but they are not heavy waves themselves.


Are waves created by the moon?

No but the tides are. Tides are created from the moon's gravitational pull of the seas. Waves are created by wind.


How does the moon create waves?

The moon's gravitational pull creates ocean tides, which in turn generate waves. When the Earth rotates, the tides move around the planet, causing water to rise and fall in a cyclical pattern that leads to the formation of waves.


What are all the ocean and sea waves?

waves are moving tides that a caused by wind, which the tides go bigger while moving
