what occurs when waves overlap

Sagot :

If you are talking about ocean waves crashing into each other, they would probably mostly cancel out with just a bit of motion left over. If you are talking about things like frequency and amplitude, overlapping waves would combine and amplify or suppress each other, depending on their direction, position, frequency and amplitude. If the two waves complement each other, they amplify; if they conflict with each other, they are suppressed.
