Constructive interference occurs when two waves are in phase with each other. This means that there is no phase shift and basically, they line up and cross the x-axis at the same times. On a graph, the positions of the individual waves add simply, giving a resulting amplitude of the first wave's amplitude plus the second wave's amplitude.

What are the different types of wave interference?
The different types of wave interference are constructive interference, where waves combine to create a larger amplitude, and destructive interference, where waves combine to cancel each other out. These occur when waves meet and superimpose on each other.
What is formed when constructive and destructive interference occur at the same time?
When constructive and destructive interference occur at the same time, regions of both maximum and minimum amplitude are formed, resulting in a pattern known as interference pattern. This pattern consists of alternating bright and dark fringes or bands depending on the phase relationship of the interfering waves.
What is formed when constructive and destructive interference occur at the same time in a wave?
When constructive and destructive interference occur at the same time in a wave, a phenomenon called beats is formed. Beats are periodic variations in amplitude that result from the superposition of two waves of slightly different frequencies.
What type of interference occurs when two waves are in phase?
Constructive
How does constructive and destructive interference effect amplitude in waves?
Constructive interference occurs when waves align to increase amplitude, while destructive interference occurs when waves align to decrease amplitude. Constructive interference results in a larger combined amplitude, while destructive interference results in a smaller combined amplitude, or even complete cancellation.

What Formed when constructive and destructive interference occur at the same time in a wave?
How? Pick one. Will not have both.
Lowest frequency at which destructive interference is observed?
Constructive and destructive interference can occur at any frequency. Superposition of waves is not dependent on a specific frequency.

What waves combine so that the resulting wave is bigger than the largest original wave?
This is known as superposition (this can refer to an increase or decrease in the amplitude of a wave caused by the interaction of two or more differing waves) or constructive interference (refers specifically to the increase in amplitude caused by the interaction of two or more waves). For optimum constructive interference to occur, the waves must be perfectly in phase at all times. This means that they must have the same frequency and wavelength and the peaks and troughs of one wave coincide perfectly with the peaks and troughs of the second wave at all times. Maximum constructive interference can occur in waves of differing frequency and wavelength, however it will only occur intermittently when the peaks and troughs happen to coincide perfectly. At other times it may vary from constructive interference (where two wave crests interact but not at their peaks) or destructive interference. Please see the related links.
What is it called when waves combine?
When waves combine, it is called interference. Interference can result in either reinforcement (constructive interference) or cancellation (destructive interference) of the waves, depending on their alignment and relative amplitudes.
