Constructive interference occurs when amplitudes of two waves combine to produce a wave with a larger amplitude.
If a wave with a smaller amplitude is produced, destructive interference has occurred.

Waves combine to make a wave with a larger amplitude in a process called?
This process is called destructive interference. This occurs when two waves collide, where one is in a trough and one is in a crest. If the waves are both a max amplitude, max crest and max trough, there will be complete destructive interference.
How do companies combine their methodologies?
not sure how they combine, but they combine. as stated in case study project management

What is an example of a destructive?
Destructive interference occurs when the amplitudes of two waves combine to produce a wave with a smaller amplitude.
What happens when a wave amplitude interferes with another wave amplitude of the same frequency?
They could undergo constructive interference in which the amplitudes of the two waves combine. For example, a wave with an amplitude of 2 units overlaps with another wave with an amplitude of 2 units, the overlapping amplitude will be 4 units. They could also undergo destructive interference in which the amplitude of one wave is 2 units and the amplitude of the second wave is -2 units. At the point where they meet, the combined amplitude will be zero.
What happens when destructive interference between waves with different amplitudes?
It depends on the frequency of the waves. Are we assuming here that one wave is acting as destructive interference to another wave?. If they have the same frequency, then the amplitudes should combine to produce a wave with a smaller amplitude than the original (two?) waves. Otherwise your results will vary.

What are two types of interference waves?
Constructive Interference is when waves allign or "in phase" meaning wave peaks and troughs match. The amplitude of the two waves adds up, creating a bigger combined amplitude.Destructive interference is when waves are "out of phase." The amplitudes along the meeting points of the two waves combine, having a negative effect. If the amplitudes are exactly equal and opposite, the waves will cancel each other out.
What two waves combine to make a wave with a larger amplitude?

If Waves combine to produce a smaller or zero amplitude in a process called what?
Destructive interference.
If two waves with equal amplitudes and wavelengths travel?
This question isn't finished...hard to answer, but if two waves with the same amplitude and wavelength travel together, and their phases are lined up exactly, they will combine to form one stronger wave with twice the amplitude, but still the same wavelength. If the phases are off by 180 degrees (hopefully you know what that means, if not, then think of a sine or cosine curve, if that helps, anyway:), then the waves will cancel each other out and cease to exist.
What wave interaction occurs when waves combine and the resulting wave has a greater amplitude?
