Answer:

Waves are most commonly caused by wind. Wind-driven waves, or surface waves, are created by the friction between wind and surface water. The gravitational pull of the sun and moon on the earth also causes waves.

Answer:

energy passing through the water, causing it to move in a circular motion. When a wave encounters a surface object, the object appears to lurch forward and upward with the wave, but then falls down and back in an orbital rotation as the wave continues by, ending up in the same position as before the wave came by.
