A sound that is lower in pitch has a larger wavelength. Some animals such as Elephants and Whales use that sound to communicate with each other. The larger wavelength lets them communicate with animals miles away.

Is wavelength of sound greater than light?
no,wave length of sound is equal to wavelength of sound as when thunder appears,light appears first than sound because of more speed than sound but we can't considere that wave length of sound is greater than that of light
How loud a sound is depends on the wavelength of the sound?
The level of the sound or the amplitude of the sound has nothing to do with the wavelength. Speed of sound c = wavelength λ × frequency f.
How are energy and wavelength of electromagnet radiation related?
The greater the energy the shorter the wavelength.
Does sound have a wavelength?
Yes it does
What is the wavelength in a sound wave?
To find the wavelength, the following formula applies: λ = ν / f That in common words is: Wavelength = Wave's Speed / Wave's Frequency So, Wavelength of sound wave = Speed of sound wave / Frequency of sound wave Now, Speed of sound wave is 343 m/s, so Wavelength of sound wave = 343 m/s / Frequency of sound wave Frequency of sound waves audible to a human ear range between 20 Hz to 20 kHz. So filling the desired sound frequency in the equation above you get the desired wavelength of that sound wave.

If wavelength of light is 104 of radii of earth than why it will penetrate deeper in sea?
if wavelength of light is of order of radii of earth then why it will penetrate deeper in sea?
What sound has a short wavelength?
A higher pitched sound has a shorter wavelength than a lower pitched sound.
What determines the highness or lowness of a sound?
Its wavelength, or pitch. Sound is only vibrations in the air. If the wavelength of the vibration is low, then it will sound "high". If the vibration has a high wavelength, then it will sound "low".
Can you play a semi-hollow unamplified?
Yes, and the deeper the body is, the greater the size of the hollow chamber, the louder the guitar will sound unplugged.
Is the air pressure greater during wavelength or amplitude?
probably wavelength
Are sound waves all the same size?
Do you mean the wavelength? Sound of higher frequencies has a shorter wavelength.
Does sound have a wavelength?
Yes it does
How are energy and wavelength of electromagnet radiation related?
The greater the energy the shorter the wavelength.
Sound with a high wavelength also has what other property?
Sound with large wavelength has low frequency / low pitch.
