Question

Two in-phase sound waves with the same amplitude and frequency arrive at the same place at the same time, resulting in
Options
A Higher frequency
B Refraction
C A new sound wave with greater amplitude
Correct Answer
D Reflection
Correct Answer

Option C is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

When two in-phase waves with the same amplitude and frequency arrive at the same point, they interfere constructively, resulting in a wave with greater amplitude.

Hint

Constructive interference increases amplitude.
