==Key Stage 3==
===Meaning===
[[Superposition]] is when one [[wave]] is in the same place as another.

===About Superposition===
: When [[wave]]s are travelling they can go through each other. When they are passing through each other they are said to be in [[superposition]] which means they are in the same place.
: [[Wave]]s can be in [[superposition]] but [[particle]]s cannot.
