Explanation of tidal wave formation in sea due toe gravitaion force of moon

[varuncsed1]

Hello
According to general theory is there any explanation of tidal wave in sea due to gravitation of moon.
How moon warp space time in such a way so that tidal waves are generated in sea?

Tidal waves (aka tsunamis) are caused by earthquakes. The name "tidal wave" is unfortunately a big misnomer. However, if you are interested in tides, the sea level is an equipotential surface, which is affected by the Earth's gravity, the Earth's rotation, and the moon's gravity.

there is not. it's two different meanings/uses of "tidal".


A "tidal wave" is caused by the sudden displacement of a large volume of a body of water, usually an ocean, but can occur in large lakes...This displacement of water is usually attributed to either earthquakes, landslides, volcanic eruptions, or more rarely by meteorites and nuclear tests...http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tsunami

The only way I can think of our moon causing a possible tidal wave (as commonly understood) is if part of it suddenly was broken off, say by a huge meteor strike, and a large chunk passed close by the earth, or if the whole thing left it's natural orbit and passed close by.

As others have already noted, you are confusing tidal waves with tidal theory (better: theory of the tides). If by "tidal wave" you mean a tsunami, then the only things these two phenomena have in common is that they both have "tidal" as a part of their name. The explanation of tsunamis has nothing to do with the tides. The term "tidal wave" is more than a misnomer here, which is why scientists prefer to use the name tsunami rather than tidal wave.

If on the other hand by "tidal wave" you mean phenomena such as tidal bores, even though that truly is a result of the tides, you aren't going to find the answer in general relativity, either. It's not that general relativity can't handle it conceptually; the problem is that the geometry is just too complex for general relativity to handle in practice. General relativity can handle situations such as neutron stars and black holes where the strong gravity fields make the geometry simple. In these situations you have no recourse but to use general relativity because Newtonian gravity is, simply put, wrong.

The Earth, with its lumpy gravity field and its lumpy continents, is a bit too much for general relativity to handle. Besides, there is no reason to go all the way to general relativity to explain the tides. The Earth's gravity field is so weak and the velocities involved are so small that Newtonian mechanics works just fine in explaining the tides.

Thanx to all to clear my doubts...
