What happens when the trough of one wave meets the crest of another?
they annihilate each other
Constructive interference occurs when the crest of one wave meets up with the trough of a second wave true or false?
false
In a transverse wave the peak of the wave is the crest and the lowest spot is the through?
True, the peak is the crest and the lowest is the trough.
Is the white top of a wave?
The crest.
What is the result of two waves over laping?
I'm guessing you're talking about Transverse waves? eg. ~ Waves consist of two parts - a crest and a trough. The crest are the high points, and a trough is the low points. When a crest meets another crest, the wave is amplified, causing constructive interference (the crests add to each other). The same thing occurs when a trough meets a trough. However, when a crest meets a trough, the wave is diminished, causing destructive interference (the crest and trough cancel each other out).
What are four exsamples of constructive forces?
1) Crest of one wave meets the crest of other wave OR Trough of one wave meets the trough of other wave.
constructive interference occurs when the crest of one wave meets up with the through of a second wave?
Crest of a second wave. In other words, the two crests, first wave and second wave, add up together, which is constructive.

When the crest of one wave passes through the trough of another wave takes place.?
Destructive interference takes place. Constructive interference occurs when the trough of one wave passes through the crest of another wave
What is half the vertical distance between the crest and the through of a wave called?
The amplitude of the wave
What is half the vertical distance between the crest and through a wave is called?
The amplitude of the wave
When the crest of the wave passes through the trough of another wave?
They cancel each other.
When the crest of one wave overlaps the through of another wave it's called?
Destructive interference
