    In transition from one constructive wave to another, the waves do not line up.

Description: 

A sinusoidal wave is printed on transparent material that can be wound up. As the radius of the windings gets bigger the waves add constructively (line up) or destructively (not lined up) like the De Broglie wavelengths in the Bohr orbit of the hydrogen atom.
