Both travel in waves but and come out from all directions if the souce other than that nit very much alike as sound waves are vibrations
What else can I help you with?
How is light and sound alike?
Sound and light are alike when light is considered a wave. Light may also be considered a stream of particles, but in the times that it is considered a wave it obeys the same mathematical laws that sound does.
Is a sound wave a transverse wave?
No, a sound wave is a compressional wave.
Is a sound wave a electromaginic wave?
No. A sound wave is a pressure wave.
Is a compression wave a sound wave?
yes a sound wave is a Compressional wave
Is a sound wave a longitudinal wave?
Yes, a sound wave is a longitudinal wave.
Is a sound wave a transverse wave?
Yes, a sound wave is a longitudinal wave, not a transverse wave.
What are some ways sound sound are alike and different?
Sound and light are alike in that they both travel in waves, can be absorbed, reflected, or refracted, and both have frequencies and wavelengths. They are different in that sound requires a medium to travel through (such as air, water, or solid materials) while light can travel through a vacuum. Additionally, sound waves are longitudinal, with particles vibrating in the same direction as the wave, while light waves are transverse, with particles vibrating perpendicular to the direction of the wave.
Is sound a transverse wave?
No, sound is a longitudinal wave, not a transverse wave.
Volume of a sound wave is equal to the what?
The amplitude of a sound wave is the same as its volume.
Is a sound wave transverse in nature?
No, a sound wave is a longitudinal wave, not transverse.
A sound wave has compressions that are very close to each other What is true about this sound wave?
The frequency of this sound wave is very near constant.
What is the sound-alike spelling for way?
The words 'weigh' and 'way' sound alike but have different spellings. The words 'weight' and 'wait' also sound alike but have different spellings.
