The two waves will move through each other unhindered, however at that exact point they will be canceled out and amplitude will be the difference of the amplitudes of the individual waves. If the amplitude of wave a is 10 and the amplitude of wave b is 7, the resulting height will be 10-7=3. If the waves have the same amplitude, the result will be an amplitude of 0.

When the trough of one wave collides at the same time and place as the crest of otherwise identical wave?

Destructive interference occurs when the trough of one wave collides with the crest of another identical wave at the same time and place. This results in the amplitudes subtracting from each other, creating a smaller resultant wave or canceling each other out completely.


What is the measurement of a wave from crest to crest or trough to trough called?

The wavelength of a wave is the distance between two identical parts of a wave in successive periods (crest to crest, trough to trough, etc.).

What property of light is defined by the distance between identical points on adjacent waves?

The property of light defined by the distance between identical points on adjacent waves is called wavelength. Wavelength is typically measured from peak to peak or trough to trough of a wave. It determines the color of light and is inversely related to the frequency of the wave.

What happens when the crest and trough collide?

The highest point of a transverse wave is known as the crest, while the lowest point is called the trough. When the crest of one wave strikes against the trough of another wave, the forces of energy working in opposite directions with cancel out the effects of each other.

What is wavelengh?

Wavelength is the distance between two consecutive points of a wave that are in phase, such as peak to peak or trough to trough. It is often used to describe the length of electromagnetic waves, sound waves, and water waves. Wavelength is inversely proportional to frequency, meaning shorter wavelengths correspond to higher frequencies.
