How does a standing wave show both constructive and destructive interference?
the waves create a pattern of crests and troughs that do not seem to be moving. because the wave pattern stays in one place it is called a standing wave.
What is the distance betwtwo adjacent wave crests or troughs called?
That's called the wavelength.
What is Power from the crests and troughs on the sea?
Its called wave power as each crest and trough makes one wave.
The addition and subtraction of wave crests and troughs is called?
Principle of Super position of waves.
Will a sound wave have crests and troughs?
Yes.

What are the highest points on a standing wave called?
When the trough of a wave and the crest of a different wave meet, the waves cancel completely. This is called destructive interference.
What wave does not move laterally through the water but appears as alternating crests and troughs in a fixed position?
Standing Waves

Principle of Super position of waves.
What is the definition of wavelength in units?
the distance between two consecutive compressions or rarefactions of a light wave is called its wavelength.
What are concentric circles in a ripple called?
These are the crests and troughs of the wave (in a ripple on the surface of water or other liquid).
Are crests and troughs characteristics of a sound wave?
No
Will a sound wave have crests and troughs?
Yes.
What is the distance between to point of the crest of a wave it is called what?
In a wave, it is called the wave length.
A point of maximum amplitude on a standing wave is called what?
Antinodes are the points of maximum amplitude on a standing wave.
