1. Interference

1.1. BD: When two or more waves overlap and combine together.

1.2. MD: When two or more waves cover and join together.

1.3. EX: When balls hit each other

2. Constructive Interference

2.1. BD: When two or more waves combine two produce a wave with a larger displacement.

2.2. MD: When one or more waves join together to create a bigger wave.

2.3. Ex: A Large Wave

3. Destructive Interference:

3.1. BD: Occurs when two or more waves combine to produce a wave with smaller displacements.

3.2. MD: When two or more waves join together to create a small wave

3.3. EX: The crests of the waves meet

4. Standingwave

4.1. BD: Occurs when two or more waves combine to produce a wave with a smaller displacement.

4.2. MD: When two or more greater waves join together to create a wave with smaller displacements

4.3. EX: A stationary wave

5. Reflection

5.1. BD: Occurs when a wave bounces off a surface that it cannot pass through

5.2. MD: A shadow of an object when on a shiny or transparent object.

5.3. EX: ripples, House of mirrors, pool reflection

6. Refraction

6.1. BD: The bending of a wave as it enters a new medium at an angle
