What is it called when two waves overlap?
When the crest of one wave overlaps the trough of another, this produces destructive interference. If both original waves are equal in amplitude, then nothing will remain. The waves completely cancel out. However, if one waver is larger in amplitude, then there will still be a wave left over after they meet, but it will be smaller. The amplitude of the new wave will be the larger wave amplitude minus the smaller wave amplitude one. The opposite can also occur. If the crests of two waves overlap, then it produces constructive interference (resulting in one larger wave).
What does the amplitude of a wave depend on?
In the case of sound, amplitude is related to volume or loudness.- loud sounds generate waves of larger amplitude and your ear would register sound waves of large amplitude as louder.
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.
What is it called when a combined wave has a smaller amplitude than the origanal waves?
superposition
Does the sound waves probably have small or large amplitudes?
well my answer is the larger amplitude.

Is it true that contructive interfecence occurs when amplitudes of two waves combine to produce a wave with a smaller amplitude?
Constructive interference occurs when amplitudes of two waves combine to produce a wave with a larger amplitude.If a wave with a smaller amplitude is produced, destructive interference has occurred.
If a band is playing loudly will the amplitude of the sound waves be small or large?
The amplitude of the sound waves will be largerbecause the larger the amplitude the louderthe sound.

What two waves combine to make a wave with a larger amplitude?
syncronized

It results in a wave with an amplitude which is equal to the sum of the amplitudes of the waves passing at that point.
Waves with the greater amplitudes carry MORE OR LESS energy than waves with smaller amplitudes?
Wave with higher amplitude carry more energy than wave with lower amplitude. For simple consideration, no amplitude is no wave and thus no energy but just a flat surface of water. Wave with amplitude must have higher energy than the no wave.
What is it called when a combined wave has a smaller amplitude than the origanal waves?
superposition
What is it called when a combined wave has a smaller amplitude than the original waves?
If the resulting amplitude is smaller, then it's "destructive interference".If the resulting amplitude is larger, then it's "constructive interference".Looks like the name you give it depends on which wave you're more interested in.When a large wave and a small wave interfere, the resulting amplitude can belarger than either one, smaller than either one, or midway between them.If the resulting amplitude is midway between the individual amplitudes, and youwere using the larger one to communicate with, then from your point of view, theinterference is destructive. If you were more interested in the smaller one, thenas far as you're concerned the same interference is constructive.
Does the sound waves probably have small or large amplitudes?
well my answer is the larger amplitude.
If Waves combine to produce a smaller or zero amplitude in a process called what?
Destructive interference.
