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.
How does wavelength affect sound and light?
Sound - pitch Light - color.
What is the relation between the frequency wavelength and speed of a sound wave?
Speed = frequency x wavelengthThis is true for all waves, sound waves as well as electromagnetic waves.
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
What is the difference between sound and visible light in their wave lenght?
The question makes little sense, but sound is a longitudinal wave, light is a transverse wave. Light avergaes around 500nm wavelength, sound audible to the human ear ranges from a few cm to 20m or so.
What is the relation between sound and the temperature of material?
I think there is no relation between sound and temperature. But velocity of sound is found to be proportional to the square root of temperature of the medium (air)
When a light ray and a sound wave have the same frequency which one has the longer wavelength?
The light wave has the longer wavelength. In the time required for one wiggle, it travels roughly 880,000 times farther than the sound wave does.
What is similar between the sound wave and the light wave?
Both are ways to transport energy from point a, to point b. Both sound and light waves have a speed, wavelength and frequency. Both can be diffracted, reflected and refracted, as those are properties of waves.
Do radio waves travel at the speed of sound at the speed of light or at some speed in between?
'Radio' waves are physically and electrically identical to light waves except for their frequency (wavelength), and they travel at the same speed as light does.
What of a sound wave is the distance between a compression or rarefaction and the next compression or rarefaction?
It is equal to wavelength.
What does the electron have that gives it a wavelength and interference effects like light and sound?

How are sound energy and light energy similar?
they both have a wavelength and frequency *study island*
