Answer:

Constructive Interference

Step-by-step explanation:

Constructive Interference occurs when two waves superimpose and make bigger amplitudes.

In constructive interference, the crests of one wave fall on the crests of second wave and the amplitudes add up. The amplitude of the resultant wave is equal to sum of the amplitude of the individual waves. Similarly, the trough of first wave falls on the trough of other wave and they superimpose to create the trough of the resultant wave.

For Example, In the attachment, two waves A and B superimpose and demonstrate Constructive interference to create the wave C.
