1. Observe and describe what happens when two pulses (coming from opposite directions) meet. Make sure your description is as detailed as possible, including: What happens to the wavelength of the wave that results when two waves of equal wavelength overlap? And, what happens to the amplitude of the resulting wave when two waves overlap? Support your answer with specific evidence. B I U E E Qave Superposition 1 240 frames per second 8x slow motion
