The combination of two or more waves that results in a new wave that is different from the original waves?
constructive interference (:
A combination of waves form a larger wave is called?
Constructive inference.. :)
What waves have the most light waves?
Light wave is an electromagnetic wave, so light waves are a kind of wave. I don't understand what you mean by what waves have the most light waves. It's not possible to emit a combination of different kinds of waves (such mechanical, EM wave, sound wave) from a single source.
A single bump or disturbance that travels through a medium?
Sound causes vibrations in waves that pass through a medium.
Sound waves can interfere with one another so that no sound results?
Yes they can. It's called destructive interference. When 2 sound waves converge on each other and the waves are 180 degrees out of phase then they will destructively interfere and the net effect will be the negation of both waves so you hear nothing.

Shock waves that are felt on the earth's surface as the results of faulting in the crust are called?
Seismic waves or tremors

What are waves produces by earthquakes called?
The waves produced by earthquakes are called seismic waves.
What are earth waves called?
They're called 'seismic' waves.
Upper atmoshperic waves are also called?
They are called by either Planetary waves or Rossby waves.
Light waves of one wavelength that travels with its crests and troughs aligned is called what?
Light waves of a single wavelength is known as being coherent. This allows constructive interference which occurs when two or more waves are in phase i.e. their crests and troughs are aligned.
Where do tremors or shock waves originate?
Waves of movement are the results of the tectonic plates colliding at the focus of the earthquake, causing shock waves or tremors.
Constructive interference results in a wave with a?
It results in a wave with an amplitude which is equal to the sum of the amplitudes of the waves passing at that point.
