A wave of amplitude 0.40 m interferes with a second wave of amplitude 0.3 m traveling in the same direction. (a) What is the largest resultant amplitude that can arise, and under what conditions will this maximum occur? m The two waves interfere destructively. The two waves interfere constructively. (b) What is the smallest resultant amplitude that can arise, and under what conditions will this minimum occur? m The two waves interfere destructively. The two waves interfere constructively.
