Solution

Interference is the phenomenon in which two or more waves superpose to form a resultant wave of greater, lower or the same amplitude.
The different kinds of waves that can show interference are Light waves, Radio waves, Surface water waves, and Acoustic waves.
In other words, all types of waves can show this phenomenon.
