Best Answer

Sound is a type of wave; therefore there can be both constructive and destructive interference.

"Noise", among other things, may refer to any sound that is considered unpleasant. This need not be related to interference. For example, any sound that is too loud will be considered "noise".

What is the two waves coming together to make a smaller wave?

Destructive interference.


What is constructive and destructive?

Constructive interference can be a confusing concept when called interference. It is wave interference that is moving in phase with another wave. This causes the waves to for a resultant wave with a greater amplitude. Destructive interference is wave interference that is moving out of phase with another wave. These waves form a resultant wave of lower amplitude.

What occurs when the crest of one wave overlaps the trough of another wave?

If a pulse "interferes" with another pulse, they build each other up to form supercrests or supertroughs. This process is known as constructive interference.


Sometimes waves interfere with one another. What type of interference occurs when the crests of one wave and the troughs of another wave overlap?

destructive interference


Distinguish between constructive interference and destructive interference?

Constructive interferences occur when two waves combine (add up) by the superpostition principle. Destructive interferences occur when the crest of one wave interferes with the trough of another. Amplitudes are subtracted.


What interference occours when waves add up to make a wave with a smaller or zero amplitude?

That is called destructive interference.
