Tides are created by the known and predictable gravitational pull of the sun and moon in their relationship to the earth. Tides are also affected by unpredictable forces of nature (winds, storms, river runs, atmospheric pressure changes). An understanding of the forces causing ocean tides is complex.
Generally, there will be 2 high tides and 2 low tides every 24 hours occuring approximately 50 minutes later each day. During periods of full moon or new moon high tides are usually higher than normal and low tides are usually lower than normal. During periods of the first quarter and last quarter the high tides and the low tides are usually less than normal.

Yes
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.
Yes, ocean tides are predictable. They are primarily influenced by the gravitational pull of the moon and the sun, which allows us to forecast the timing and height of tides accurately. Tide prediction tables are available to help predict high and low tides at specific locations.
Waves are primarily generated by the wind as it moves across the surface of the water, creating ripples and larger swells that can vary in height and frequency. Tides, on the other hand, are caused by the gravitational pull of the moon and the sun on Earth’s oceans, resulting in predictable, periodic rises and falls in sea level. While waves can change rapidly and are influenced by weather conditions, tides follow a consistent cycle, typically occurring twice daily. Additionally, waves primarily affect the surface of the water, while tides influence the entire water column and can extend far inland along coastlines.

no oceans do not effect waves and tides
tides are waves
Yes they are, but I think tides are a little smaller than waves, waves can get very dangerous. Scary
No. Rip tides are caused by heavy waves but they are not heavy waves themselves.

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

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