Answer:

It means the waves collides and constructive interference occurred.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the two waves coming from the opposite direction collide with each other, there are two way of their interference.

  • Constructive interference: An interference which results in the increase in energy. And it is when crust of a wave comes on the crust of second wave.
  • Destructive interference: An interference which results in decrease in energy of the resulting wave and colliding waves cancel the result of each other.

Hence in experiment there will be constructive interference.
