Homonyms are different words that are spelled and pronounced the same. Might as in strength or power is a homonym for might as in possible.

"The king displayed his might when he had the spies executed."

"I might go to the store."

On the other hand, a homophone (sounds the same) for might would be mite. Might can be power, strength, or a possibility, while a mite is a tiny insect or parasite.

"You might have a mite on your ear."
