Wave Interference: Constructive and Destructive
categories: Grade 11, Uncategorized
Constructive Wave: When two crest (or troughs) meet and their energies combine to make displace the medium and make one large trough then they separate back out again
Destructive Wave: When a crest and trough meet the energies “cancel out” and then continue out after they pass
Standing Wave: Interfering waves that have the same amplitude and wavelength
