What Two waves are traveling towards each other and the crest from the waves meet what happens?
When crest from two waves meet, they combine through a process called interference. If the crests align, the amplitudes of the waves add up, resulting in constructive interference and a larger wave. If the crests and troughs align, they cancel each other out through destructive interference.
What if the wave on the left had a 3cm crest and the wave on the right had a 3cm crest What would the resulting interference be?
The answer depends on the wavelengths as well as the amplitudes.
What is crest in waves?
The crest in waves are the broken peices of the waves in the ocean
Near shore crest shaped waves are called what?
Near shore crest shaped waves are called "plunging waves." These waves are characterized by a curling crest that breaks forward as the wave approaches the shore.
What is the distance between the crest of one wave and the crest of the next wave is the waves?
The distance between the crest of one wave and the crest of the next wave is the wavelength of the wave. It represents the length of one complete cycle of the wave, from crest to crest. It is a fundamental property of waves and is used to characterize different types of waves.

What happens when a crest falls on the crest during superposition of waves?
we get a bigger crest

How can you determine waves wavelength?
by measuring the distance from crest to crest.

What letter is labeling the waves crest?
The letter A is labeling the wave's crest.
What 2 ways do waves interact with each other?
Waves can interfere constructively, where crest aligns with crest or trough aligns with trough, resulting in an amplified wave. Waves can also interfere destructively, where crest aligns with trough, leading to cancellation of the waves.
What is it called when the crest of two waves overlap and result in an increased wave amplitude?
Superimposing of waves is when two or more waves travel through the same medium and intersect. The net displacement is the addition of the waves amplitude. If they are in phase they increase amplitude; out of phase, the amplitude decreases.
What is a trough and a crest?
it has to do with waves. trough- is the bottom of the wave crest- is the top of the wave
What is the distance between the crest of consecutive waves?
The distance between the crest of consecutive waves is called the wavelength. It is measured as the distance between two successive points in the same phase of a wave, such as from crest to crest or trough to trough.
