Interfering With Waves

Interference-two or more waves overlapping to form a new wave

Constructive Interference(in phase)-sound waves that constructively interfere are louder

Destructive Interference(out of phase)-sound 
waves that destructively interfere are not as loud

Resonance-the ability of an object to vibrate by absorbing energy at its natural frequency.
