  1. 25.7Interference Interference patterns occur when waves from different sources arrive at the same point—at the same time.

  2. 25.7Interference • In constructive interference, the waves reinforce each other to produce a wave of increased amplitude. Amplitude has doubled in height

  3. 25.7Interference • In constructive interference, the waves reinforce each other to produce a wave of increased amplitude. • In destructive interference, the waves cancel each other and no wave is produced.

  4. INTERFERENCE • The combination of two or more waves that exist in the same place at the same time. • Constructive Interference (additive effect—in phase) • Destructive Interference (subtractive effect—out of phase) • http://www2.biglobe.ne.jp/%7Enorimari/science/JavaEd/e-wave3.html • http://www2.biglobe.ne.jp/%7Enorimari/science/JavaEd/e-wave2.html

  5. 25.7Interference • Two overlapping water waves produce an interference pattern.

  6. Composite wave

  7. 25.7Interference Wave interference is easiest to see in water as an interference pattern. When waves are out of phase, the crests of one wave overlap the troughs of another to produce regions of zero amplitude. When waves are in phase, the crests of one wave overlap the crests of the other, and the troughs overlap as well.
