Wave Phenomena: Interference Fundamentals

Interference happens when two or more waves overlap, and their displacements combine at each point in space and time. This combination is governed by the principle of superposition. Simply put, when waves meet, the total displacement at any point is the sum of the individual displacements of each wave at that point.

There are two main types of interference:
