according the principle of superposition, a wave with a certain amplitude superposed with a similar wave will yield a wave with 4 times the amount of energy.
This would be double the combined energy of the original 2 waves. Assuming 2 point wave sources are perfectly in phase; and there is no destructive interference, wouldn't this violate energy conservation?
