How is the speed of light and speed of sound related?
The speed of light is about 900,000 times as fast as the speed of sound in air.
What is a subjective property of sound related to frequency?
Pitch is related to the frequency of Sound. So the subjective property is Pitch. Colour is related to the wavelength of Light. So the subjective property of Light is Colour.
How are sound waves and light waves related?
They are both waves...
How are light and sound different?
Different is the speed of propagation. Scroll down to related links and look at "Acoustic or sound waves in air - Radio and light waves in a vacuum".
Are sound waves light waves?
No, sound waves are not light waves. The two are completely different.Sound waves are longitudinal mechanical waves, while light waves are transverse electromagnetic waves, and sound requires a medium through which to travel, but light does not.A brief outline of key differences between light waves and sound waves:Sound requires a medium (gas, liquid, air) to travel through. Light does not.Light can also be treated as a particle, sound cannot.How you calculate the energy of a sound, or light wave is also different. Light energy is related to the frequency (or wavelength, these two values are closely related) - "E=hf". The energy of a sound wave is related to it's amplitude (|a|2)and frequency.The speed of sound is relative to the speed of the observer, while the speed of light is constant, regardless of the speed of the observer.Sound is a pressure wave, a region of higher and lower densities in a material, moving through the material. Light is an oscillation in the strength of electrical and magnetic fields moving through space.They are different types of waves, sound is a compression or longitudinal wave, light is a transverse wave.
Is there a science word that has to do with light or sound that starts with j?
There are very limited science words that start with J and none of them are related to light and sound. However, aÊjoule is a unit of electrical, mechanical, or heat energy.
Differences between light and sound?
Speed of sound is 343 m/s at 20 degrees Celsius or 68 degrees Fahrenheit. Speed of light is 299792458 m/s in vacuum. Scroll down to related links and look at "Acoustic or sound waves in air and radio and light waves in a vacuum".
Is light faster than sound or sound is faster than light?
Light is faster than sound
Where can light and sound energy be found?
Anywhere where there is light or sound!
What is brightness as sound is to light?
Loudness is to brightness as sound is to light.
What is fast light or sound?
Light is faster than sound
Do light and sound both move in waves?
Light and sound both move in waves. Light is much faster than sound. Light waves are smaller than sound waves.
