When waves interfere destructively where does the energy go?
There isn't any energy lost when waves interfere destructively, so it technically doesn't "go" anywhere. One wave will be at a high point, but the other will be at a low point and will be essentially acting like "negative energy." Don't think of it like "losing energy," but more like just adding together positive and negative energies to find a value between the two.
What happens when two crests of two waves overlap?
The amplitudes add.
Two waves that interfere completely result in a wave with a larger amplitude than either of the two initial waves.?
Regardless of the frequency of the wave, all sound:
True or Falce Sound waves can interfere with one another so that no sound results?
falseanswer 2. Over a small region, an 'antiphase signal' can be used to cancel out a sound.
What are the two types of waves?
The three types of seismic waves are:P waves, S waves, and Surface waves
When two waves overlap and interfere constructively what does the resulting have?
"higher amplitude"
When two waves overlap and interfere constructively what does the resulting wave have?
the amplitudes add together
What conditions are required for two waves on a rope to interfere completely destructively?
they are to be shaped relatively close and the crest and trough need to be almost touching (or really close)
What occurs when two or more waves occupy the same space at same time?
They interfere. The interference will be constructive (create a greater wave) if they are in phase, they will interfere destructively if they are out of phase.
When two sound waves destructively interfere what does it sound like?
Destructive interference cancels out the sound - so all you hear is silence.
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.
Can sound waves show interference?
Interference of sound waves occurs when one sound wave is not in phase with another. Graphically, this means that the sin/cos function representing the second wave does not line up exactly with the first one and the differences in sounds that result interfere with each other.
When waves interfere destructively where does the energy go?

When a light wave bends around a barrier or the edge of an opening the resulting waves can?
interfere with each other
Sometimes waves interfere with one another. What type of interference occurs when the crests of one wave and the troughs of another wave overlap?
destructive interference
Can light waves and sound waves interfere with each other if yes why?
They can't interfere.
When two waves oerlap and interfere constructivly what does the resulting wave have?
A bigger amplitude. If the interference is perfectly constructive (same frequencies, in phase), the resulting amplitude will equal the sum of the two wave amplitudes.
