when the waves are in same phase or out of phase

Dear ayush

superposition occure in both cases

When the two waves are in-phase (phi=0), they interfere constructively and the result has twice the amplitude of the individual waves. When the two waves have opposite-phase (phi=180), they interfere destructively and cancel each other out.
