There is no set length on any sound wave. Sound waves vary hugely in the

length that they can be.

The length of any sound wave is (the speed of sound in the current medium)/(the frequency of the sound) In air at sea level, the wavelengths in the audible range of frequencies range

from 1.72 centimeters (at 20 KHz) to 17.2 meters (at 20 Hz) ... a ratio of 1,000.

Which relation is there between wavelength and height?

There is no relation between wave length and wave height. You can change the wave height independently from the wave length. Wave height tells you which amplitude the wave has. If you think of sound that means how loud it is. The wave length tells you the pitch or the frequency of this sound, that means high or low sound. Long wavelength means bass sound and short wavelength means treble sound.
