Difference between Tides and Waves. Key Difference: Tides are the rise and fall of sea level that is caused by the gravitational pull of the moon and the sun on the Earth. Waves are actually energy that moves across the surface of the water.
1 The difference between waves and regular matter moving around to transfer energy, is that a wave pulse starts in one spot and, except for a small amount of movement, the particles of the wave stay in one spot.ransverse waves are the waves that have the classical wave shape everyone thinks of when they imagine a wave. 1  Particles of the medium move perpendicular to the direction the transverse wave itself is moving. 2  For example, if the wave is moving to the right, the particles of the medium are moving up and down.
