it is possable for a crest to overlap a trough and they cancel each other out
destructive interference
When crests overlap crests, they reinforce each other and create a larger amplitude wave. When troughs overlap troughs, they also reinforce each other and create a larger trough. This phenomenon is known as constructive interference.
Yes, a sound wave will have crests and troughs. The crests represent the points of maximum positive displacement in the wave, while the troughs represent the points of maximum negative displacement. This pattern of alternating crests and troughs forms the waveform of the sound wave.
Constructive interference occurs when the crests of one wave overlap with the crests of another wave. This results in a wave with greater amplitude.
What is the measure of how high the crests are or how deep the troughs are

No
The distance between two adjacent wave crests or troughs is called the wavelength.
constructive interference
Two.
Wavelength is the measure of distance between adjacent crests or troughs.
Transverse waves have crests and troughs. In transverse waves, particles in the medium oscillate perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation.
When the crests of two waves overlap, they undergo constructive interference, resulting in an increase in amplitude. This causes the two waves to combine, forming a wave with larger peaks at the point of overlap.
