If you have one single sound, it will make a certain type of frequency. Now if the apex of the crest is the exact opposite of the apex of the trough. That single sound will cancel each other out.
If you have one single sound, the apex of the crest is exactly the same as the apex of the second sound (at the same frequency) the overall sound will increase.

When two waves of the same wavelengths travel so that their crests and also troughs are aligned they are said to be?
cresent
What is it called when waves travel through each other and the crests overlap with crests and troughs over lap with troughs?
Standing Waves.
Are compressions and rarefactions characteristics of transverse waves?
Transverse waves have crests and troughs. Longitudinal waves have compressions and rarefactions.
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.
The addition and subtraction of wave crests and troughs is called?
Principle of Super position of waves.

Do x rays have crests and troughs?
yes because all waves have crests and troughs.
Have compressional waves crests and troughs?
Yes.
Are compressions and rarefactions characteristics of transverse waves?
Transverse waves have crests and troughs. Longitudinal waves have compressions and rarefactions.
In what ways are sound waves like ocean waves?
Sound waves are like ocean waves because it resembles an ocean wave with crests (peak) and troughs (valleys). The crests indicate regions of high pressure and the troughs, low pressure.
Do transverse have compressions and rarefactions?
Transverse waves have crests and troughs. Longitudinal waves have compressions and rarefactions.
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.

The addition and subtraction of wave crests and troughs is called?
Principle of Super position of waves.
What is the time between the passage of two waves crests or troughs at a fixed point?
wavelength
Are the waves for cell phones longitudinal?
The waves transmitted from phone to phone are transverse (crests and troughs), but the waves from the phone to your ear are longitudinal
