Reflection and absorption...most likely a combination of the two. In reflection the wave bounces back off the barrier and, depending on the incident wave and how it matches in phase with the reflected wave, the reflected wave could be enhanced through constructive interference with the incident wave or degraded through destructive interference. In absorption, the energy from the incident wave is taken into the barrier material. This typically causes the barrier to vibrate indicating the energy it absorbed. A barrier is more likely to absorb the energy when its natural frequency is some harmonic of the incident wave.
When a wave bounces off a surface, the interaction is called "reflection."
The wave interaction that occurs inside a material is called bulk wave interaction. This type of interaction involves the propagation of waves through the volume of a material, rather than just along its surface or boundaries. Examples of bulk waves include sound waves in a solid and seismic waves traveling through the Earth.
Light is an example of a electromagnetic wave.
When a sound wave hits a surface and reflects back towards its source, it creates an echo. The time delay between the original sound and the echo is determined by the distance between the source and the reflecting surface. The intensity of the echo is typically lower than the original sound due to energy losses during reflection.
Waves change direction as they near shore due to the interaction between the wave front and the sea bottom. This interaction causes the wave to slow down and bend, resulting in the wave refraction. Refraction causes the wave energy to focus on headlands and disperse in bays, affecting wave direction.

Since glass is not very flexible, it can shatter if a singer produces a note with the same natural frequency as the glass. What type of wave interaction does this example represent?

Constructive interference occurs when waves combine and reinforce each other, resulting in a wave with a greater amplitude. This interaction happens when the peaks and troughs of the waves align, adding up to create a larger wave.
