anything that can cause a large disturbance in the ocean can cause a tsunami. however, it's unlikely that an asteroid would cause a tsunami for a couple of reasons :
1. asteroids usually burn up in the atmosphere anyway, and even if it makes it through, it's usually too tiny to cause a tusnami
2. tsunamis are especially devastating because it's not just a topical wave, the whol body of water moves, it's like a wall of moving water. Asteriods would have to enter the water @ just the right angle to create a tsunami
3. all in all, it could happen, but it's unlikely
A tsunami will occur when an asteroid falls into water bodies. It will cause a rapid displacement of water and create a series of waves. The waves will then travel in all directions at high speeds. When the waves reach the Coastlines, the waves will get higher as the seafloor gets raised, and a tsunami strikes.
No. It is all related to an earthquake.
A tsunami is typically caused by underwater earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, or landslides that displace a large volume of water. This displacement creates a series of powerful waves that travel rapidly across the ocean, eventually reaching shorelines and causing widespread destruction.

Many things can happen if an asteroid hit the earth. Here is a list of a few consequences. There could be an explosion when the asteroid hits the earth. There could also be a tsunami if the asteroid landed in the water. Another possible consequence is a global firestorm. Another possible problem is Acid Rain. The last and final problem from this small list is temperature effects.
It can trigger a tsunami.
no
It shakes the land and moves all the water which causes a tsunami.
unless a big earthquake or big asteroid collision, no.
The Chicxulub asteroid, which hit the Gulf of Mexico about 65 million years ago. It is said to be the asteroid that killed the dinosaurs.
A tsunami
Potentially. There are subduction zones away from continental margins. An asteroid impact in the ocean would also create a tsunami.
Tornado, hurricane, tsunami, asteroid, etc.
a volcano under the water causes a tsunami <3 :)
Some causes of catastrophic changes to Earth's surfaces include volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, asteroid impacts, and tsunamis. These events can result in widespread destruction and alter landscapes in a short period of time.
Perhaps in the event of a very large asteroid impact, but other than that, no.
Tsumamis are often caused by undersea earthquakes. The earthquake makes the ocean floor move, which causes the tsunami-wave.
O_O, earthquake, easy
