Wave Superposition

Add two sine waves with independent amplitude and phase, and see how the phase difference shapes the resultant wave.

💡 Superposition Principle
When two waves occupy the same space simultaneously, the displacement of the resultant wave equals the sum of the individual displacements.

Constructive: Δφ = 0° → max amplitude
Destructive: Δφ = 180° → min amplitude
