What type of interference occurs when two waves are in phase?
Constructive
What is it called when waves travel as a group?
When waves act together, you talk about "interference".When they reinforce each other, it is "constructive interference".When they cancel each other, it is "destructive interference".
When two or more waves meet they have an effect on each other this called?
constructive or destructive interference
Is echo constructive or destructive interference?
An echo is just the reflection of sound from a surface. As such it is neither constructive or destructive. These terms refer to the way sound waves combine with each other.
The combining of waves as they meet is known as?
Interference. Constructive Interference, which is where the waves increase amplitudes and troughs when they overlap. Destructive Interference, which is where the waves cancel each other out when they overlap.
When they meet waves?
Interfere with each other. This interference can be either constructive or destructive.

What is the result of two or more waves overlapping each other?
There will be either constructive or destructive interference.

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.
What is the interaction between two waves that meet?
Interference. This can result in either constructive interference, resulting in increased amplitude, or destructive interference, whereby there would a reduced amplitude.
The combining of waves as they meet is known as?
Interference. Constructive Interference, which is where the waves increase amplitudes and troughs when they overlap. Destructive Interference, which is where the waves cancel each other out when they overlap.
When two waves meet and cancel each other out what kind of interference occurs?
well think about it... if they cancel each other out, are they constructive or destructive?
What are constructive interference and destructive interference?
when two waves superimposed on each other in the same phase (phase diff is 0), then the resultant amplitude becomes the sum of the amplitudes of the two waves. This type of interference is called constructive interference. on the other hand, when two waves superimposed on each other in the opposit phase (phase diff is 180 degree), then the resultant amplitude becomes the difference of the amplitudes of the two waves. This type of interference is called destructive interference.
How is music affected in an auditorium when there is destructive interference of the sound waves?
Destructive interference is where two sound waves mix and cancel each other out to some extent. If destructive interference is occurring, the sound level will be lower than you would otherwise expect. A properly designed auditorium will use both destructive and constructive interference where required to achieve the desired clarity of sound.
