Quizplus · Accepted Answer

When two wave trains of the same frequency traveling in opposite directions meet, they do not reflect from each other. Instead, they superpose according to the principle of superposition, pass through one another, continue to carry energy, and remain in their original wave type (transverse in this case). Reflection typically occurs at a boundary or interface, not between two waves in the same medium.
