Describing Types of Interferences

2 boxes connected by a plus sign hold Wave 1 on top and Wave 2 on bottom. The crests of Wave 1 line up with the troughs of Wave 2. 2 curved lines connect these boxes with a third box showing the 2 waves superimposed. An arrow leads from this box to another box labeled Resulting Wave with a wave having twice the amplitude of Waves 1 or 2.
Does the resulting wave demonstrate destructive interference? Explain your answer.

Answer:

No, the resulting wave in the diagram does not demonstrate destructive interference. The resulting wave in the diagram shows a bigger wave than Wave 1 or Wave 2. If it demonstrated destructive interference, it would be a smaller wave or a horizontal line. With destructive interference, waves break down to form a smaller wave, or cancel each other out, resulting in no wave formation.
