It reflects the radar away
It destroys the radar signal

When 2 waves temporarily interfere with each other then resume their course of movement, which of the following is true?
They take on and keep a new amplitude based on the result of the interference until the end of the movement.
They are not affected by the interference and maintain their original amplitude throughout the movement.
Both waves are always counteracted and cease to exist.
They temporarily take on a new amplitude due to the interference but resume their original amplitude until the end of the movement.
