Christian Huygens' was one of the first to suggest that light was a wave. His theory, the wave theory of light, stated this, it was opposed by Newton's idea that light was a particle. More recently, scientists such as Thomas Young and Max Planck proved this theory with experiments. So, simply put, the wave theory states that light is a wave, which, as far as we know, is correct.

First of all, a sound wave is not a light wave. The frequency is not the only difference - it is quite a different type of wave. A wound wave might somehow INDUCE the creation of light waves (I don't know, it is just a possibility), but the sound wave ITSELF will not become a light wave. Second, the frequencies of light are extremely high; I am not sure whether sound can made at such frequencies.
The more appropriate question would be Is light a particle or a wave? But first, lets answer your question.. Light is both an energy and a particle..... The Energy liberated by a light can be given by E=hc/lamda where c is the speed of the light and landa is the wavelength of the light. Now to my question.. Light is both a particle and a wave... Light travels in straight lines..... How does it travel???? Through particles.. the light particles transfer the light energy by rapid vibration as in case of sound energy.... How it is a wave..?? This was proved by Albert Einstein, When we consider a very small body, when i say very small. i mean not visible from naked eyes,,, light tends to curve alont the body,, (This particular phenomenon is given a special name, sorry, i forgot.)Thus, light can also be treated as a wave.
A sonic wave.
He added an extra mathematical term to Ampere's law and discovered that with what are now called Maxwell's equations there is a free-space solutions in the form of waves. He found that the wave solutions travel at the speed of light, so he guessed that they were light. This was later proved to be correct. The equations also predicted the existence of radio waves and these were discovered 15 years later.
I would rather say that light IS a wave, not that it HAS a wave. It is a type of electromagnetic wave.
