She can use destructive interference to generate a wave with an amplitude of 3.1 m.

She can use constructive interference to generate a wave with an amplitude of 1.5 m.

She can use destructive interference to generate a wave with an amplitude of 2.8 m.

She can use constructive interference to generate a wave with an amplitude of 3.5 m.

    In physical science that deals with waves, if we say "constructive interference" we generate a wave that has an amplitude that is the sum of the amplitudes of two waves. Also, we say "destructive interference" when we generate a wave that has an amplitude that is the difference of the amplitudes of the two waves. In this number, the answer should therefore be any of the choices c and d.
