What else can I help you with?
How is sound and light different?
It is different because sound vibrates and light reflects
What is worst Light pollution or Sound pollution?
Both are as bad as each other but in a completely different way. 'Sound pollution' is called 'noise pollution'.
The quality in sound that corresponds to color in light is?
Timbre is the quality in sound that corresponds to color in light. Just as different colors in light can create different visual impressions, different timbres in sound create different auditory impressions.
What results from wavelengths and frequencies of light and sound?
Different wavelengths and frequencies of light are interpreted as different colours; those of sound are interpreted as pitch.
What result from wavelengths and frequencies of light and sound?

Is visible light a type of sound?
no, sound and light are very different Sound is a vibration in air, light is a particle called a photon moving through the air
Does light travels the same way as sound?
No. Light can't travel through solid brick, steel etc, but sound can.
How are sound and light forms of energy different?
Sound is a form of mechanical energy and light is electrical. Sound moves as a longitudinal wave and lighty as a transverse wave. Sound cannot travel in free space, light can.
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.
Why sound travels faster then light in television?
It doesn't. Light travels at a speed of 300,000 km/second; sound travels roughly a million times slower. By the way, the light you see and the sound you hear in television doesn't travel as light or sound for most of the way - the information is encoded in a radio wave (which also travels at the speed of light). Only in the television set is the information transformed back into normal light, and sound.
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".
How is light different from sound?
Sound is the vibration of molecules and atoms. Light is made up of things called "light quanta" or "photons." This means that sound cannot travel through a vacuum (there are obviously no molecules or atoms in a vacuum to transmit sound) but light can.
