Wave Interference[edit | edit source]

Waves travel in the same medium will interfere to produce difference interference effects . When two waves of the same phase travel toward each other interfere will produce Constructive Interferences. When two waves of opposite phase travel toward each other they will produce Destructive Interferences. the interference is divided into two classes- 1-division of wavefront 2-division of amplitude

Sound Wave[edit | edit source]

Positive interference will produce a Noise Echo. Negative interference will produce either No Sound or Intermittent.

Light Wave[edit | edit source]

Positive interference will produce a [Bright Light]] Light. Negative interference will produce either No Light or Dim Light
