Constructive Interference: A constructive interference is when two crests from different sources collide, causing their energies to combine and displace the medium. It creates a crest that is equal to the sum of the two crests where they collide, and then the crests separate and continue on the way they were before the combined. Destructive Interference: A destructive interference…

Pulse Wave: A pulse wave is a non-repeating wave. It is a single disturbance. Periodic Wave: A periodic wave requires regularly repeating disturbances. It is a wave that occurs at a regular interval. Transverse Wave: This wave is caused by us pulling the spring sideways at a right angle to the way in which the wave will travel.…
