Interference

Play with our wave interference toy. See what happens when two waves interfere with each other!

Wave A + Wave B = Wave C

Change the wavelength, amplitude, and speed of Wave A and Wave B as you like. See what happens to the sum of the waves, Wave C.

Try a few things:
1) Can you make an extra large amplitude Wave C?
2) Can you cause Wave C to become a flat line? It is possible!
