The ans is 'C' constructively to produce larger amplitude.Note that destructive interference will yield lower amplitude

Greetings, The Myschool Team.
The correct answer is C(constructively to produce a wave of larger amplitude) and not A(destructively to produce a wave of larger amplitude). The two waves shown here are in phase, and when two waves in phase interfere, they do so constructively. In constructive interference, the two waves produce a wave of larger amplitude. This is described aptly by C, making it the correct answer, and not A which claims that destructive interference produces waves of larger amplitude, which is not true.
Thus, the correct answer is C (constructively to produce a wave of larger amplitude) and not A(destructively to produce a wave of larger amplitude). Thank you.

C is legitically legit.
Shout out to all my friends.

Thank you all for the correction, ๐บ, if there was a way to change the answer ourselves that could have been done, ๐ค, well, correct answer option C. Always know that destructive interference would either yield a zero resultant or lower amplitude.
