I'm guessing you're talking about Transverse waves? eg. ~
Waves consist of two parts - a crest and a trough. The crest are the high points, and a trough is the low points. When a crest meets another crest, the wave is amplified, causing constructive interference (the crests add to each other). The same thing occurs when a trough meets a trough.
However, when a crest meets a trough, the wave is diminished, causing destructive interference (the crest and trough cancel each other out).
When two waves meet, it is called wave interference. This can result in constructive interference, where the waves combine to create a larger wave, or destructive interference, where the waves cancel each other out.
When two waves combine, it is called interference. Interference can result in either constructive interference, where the waves combine to create a larger amplitude, or destructive interference, where the waves cancel each other out.
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.
When two waves meet, the interaction is called interference. Interference can result in either constructive interference, where the waves combine to create a stronger wave, or destructive interference, where the waves cancel each other out.
Yes, interference can result in a wave that is larger than either of the two original waves when the peaks of the waves align (constructive interference). This causes the amplitudes to add up, resulting in a larger wave.
The correct answer is ''Interference"

Regardless of the frequency of the wave, all sound:
They interfer
Beats are a direct result of the difference in frequency between two sound waves that are interfering with each other. When two sound waves with slightly different frequencies overlap, they create a series of alternating constructive and destructive interference patterns, resulting in the perception of beats.
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.
Standing waves are also known as stationary waves. They are waves that remain in a constant position. This phenomenon can occur because the medium is moving in the opposite direction to the wave, or it can arise in a stationary medium as a result of interference between two waves traveling in opposite directions.
When two waves meet, the interaction is called interference. Interference can result in either constructive interference, where the waves combine to create a stronger wave, or destructive interference, where the waves cancel each other out.

There will be either constructive or destructive interference.
