Noise cancellation through interference; I guess most people here know what I am talking about.
My question is: where does the energy go?
In a (sound)wave there is constant exchange between kinetic and potential energy, or at least that's how I see it.
Now the wave gets canceled through interference and the result is a 'wave' with 0 amplitude. Is all the air now standing still and has all the energy dissipated into heat?
