OpenStudy (jfraser):

same kind of idea as your last question

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but is the supersposition principle

OpenStudy (jfraser):

it's still the same kind of idea. When 2 waves arrive in phase, what happens?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol what is the superposition principle

OpenStudy (anonymous):

dont they add up right?

OpenStudy (jfraser):

it's the same kind of idea ;-)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ooohh

OpenStudy (anonymous):
