Yupp, they occur between 10-15 per minute where as constructive occur about 7 times per minute.

Which are more destructive body waves or surface waves?
Surface waves.
What is constructive interface?
Did you mean 'constructive interferance' - where waves from more than one source meet at a point where their energies combine rather than destructively cancelling out.
What is the difference between constructive and destructive margins?
a constructive (divergent) plate boundary, new crust is being created to infill the gaps caused by spreading plates. At a destructive (subduction-convergent) plate boundary, old, dense oceanic crust is diving into, and becoming part of the mantle.Read more: What_is_the_difference_between_a_constructive_plate_boundary_and_a_destructive_plate_boundary
How do ocean waves change water to erode land along the shoreline?
Waves are formed by the action(friction) of the wind on the surface of the water. The longer the uninterrupted distance the wind can blow over the surface the larger the waves.This is called the fetch. T he waves have speed and mass therefore they have energy. This energy can destroy or erode by mechanical action, hydraulic action and chemical action. If the waves are small they can have a constructive action. So waves can be destructive or constructive. The moon does not form waves. The moon's gravitational influence is responsible for the tides
What is it called when a combined wave has a smaller amplitude than the original waves?
If the resulting amplitude is smaller, then it's "destructive interference".If the resulting amplitude is larger, then it's "constructive interference".Looks like the name you give it depends on which wave you're more interested in.When a large wave and a small wave interfere, the resulting amplitude can belarger than either one, smaller than either one, or midway between them.If the resulting amplitude is midway between the individual amplitudes, and youwere using the larger one to communicate with, then from your point of view, theinterference is destructive. If you were more interested in the smaller one, thenas far as you're concerned the same interference is constructive.
What is the result of two or more waves overlapping each other?
There will be either constructive or destructive interference.
When two or more waves meet they have an effect on each other this called?
constructive or destructive interference
Constructive interference occurs when the amplitudes of two waves combine to produce a wave with a smaller amplitude?
It's called Constructive. (:Just found the answer.
What landforms in Georgia were caused by destructive forces?
the okefenokee swamp- destructive amicolola falls- constructive graves mountain- constructive soapstone ridge- constructive and destructive there are a few more that i can't name right now but i will look up more later. the okefenokee swamp- destructive amicolola falls- constructive graves mountain- constructive soapstone ridge- constructive and destructive there are a few more that i can't name right now but i will look up more later. the okefenokee swamp- destructive amicolola falls- constructive graves mountain- constructive soapstone ridge- constructive and destructive there are a few more that i can't name right now but i will look up more later.

Are rivers constructive or destructive forces?
It would be constructive, since it creates more than it destroys. See this article for more information on the Amazon: http://www.freshwateraquariumplants.com/amazonbiotope/amazonriverfacts.html
What is wave motion?
Wave action describes the 'behaviour' of the waves. Waves can either be constructive or descrutive. Constructive waves act to build up the beach, this occures when more sediment( sand) is deposited onto the beach and less( sediment) is removed with the receding waves. Destructive waves are the opposite of constructive waves, this is when more sediment is removed than is deposited onto the beach.
Why are surface waves more destructive to building than p waves or s waves?
they are more destructive because they are on the suface and because they are slower
Why are surface waves more destructive to building s than P waves or S waves are?
they are more destructive because they are on the suface and because they are slower
When two or more sound waves interact?
they interfere each other and they produce 1. constructive or 2.destructive or compeletely desructive resultant wave.. thx...with best regards...
Which are more destructive body waves or surface waves?
Surface waves.
Was the civil war ultimately more destructive or constructive?
Constructive/good due to the fact it opened peoples eyes.
