Explanation: Superposition is the combination of two waves at the same location. Constructive interference occurs when two identical waves are superimposed in phase. Destructive interference occurs when two identical waves are superimposed exactly out of phase. A standing wave is one in which two waves superimpose to produce a wave that varies in amplitude but does not propagate. Nodes are points of no motion in standing waves. An antinode is the location of maximum amplitude of a standing wave. Waves on a string are resonant standing waves with a fundamental frequency and can occur at higher multiples of the fundamental, called overtones or harmonics. Beats occur when waves of similar frequencies f 1 and f 2 are superimposed. The resulting amplitude oscillates with a beat frequency given by.
