The crests of one wave overlap the troughs of another wave?
it is possable for a crest to overlap a trough and they cancel each other out
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
What is it called when waves travel through each other and the crests overlap with crests and troughs over lap with troughs?
Standing Waves.
If one complete cycle of a periodic wave has two crest how many troughs will it have?
Two.
What is troughs wave?
A trough wave is the lowest part between two crest waves.

What is troughs wave?
A trough wave is the lowest part between two crest waves.
What is the wave period?
the time it takes for any two crest to troughs to pass a stationary point.
Where two waves interfere the displacment where two troughs meet is?
When two waves interfere, the displacement where two troughs meet is negative.
When two waves interfere the displacement where two troughs meet is positive negative zero or a crest?
Negative
What is wave period?
the time it takes for any two crest to troughs to pass a stationary point.
What is the definition of crest and trough?
it depends on what you are talking about if your talking about light here it is light can be classified as a wave when your talking about crests and troughs a crest is the top most part of the wave if you split the wave in half the trough has the same principle it is the lowest most part of the wave if you split it in half does that clarrify a little bit?
What is Power from the crests and troughs on the sea?
Its called wave power as each crest and trough makes one wave.
