light and sound do not have mass. Light is electromagnetic wave transverse in nature. Sound is longitudinal wave. But sound needs material medium so it is mechanical wave.

Moreover matter is the one which occupies the space. But waves do not occupy but traverse in space. Electromagnetic waves don't need material medium, but sound waves do need a material medium.

False physics to assume that light has no mass. Energy = mc^2 =hf=cp. Light has energy and momentum. p=h/w =mv.

Is light and sound is matter?

Light is not considered matter as it consists of massless particles called photons. Sound, on the other hand, is a form of energy that propagates through matter as mechanical waves, so it is not considered matter in itself.


Why light sound and energy are not considered to be matter?

Sort of. Light and sound are forms of energy, which according to Einstein, is a form of matter ( E=mc2). For most purposes, though, energy isn't really matter. moreover , light and sound is energy not matter because it is the massless particle..!


Is the sound considered as a matter?

Is sound considered as matter? No, matter is composed of atoms and particles, and sound is a perceptible motion (vibration) of material things.


What type af matter are sound and light?

sound and light aren't types of matter


Is sound considered matter?

No, sound travels through matter but is not matter itself.


Why sound is not considered matter?

Sound has no mass. Without matter, there can be no sound. Sound is information which is carried on a wave that moves through matter.


Is everything matter?

Yes, Matter is everything and anything.


Why light matter?

Light and sound are not matter. Unlike air, they have no mass or volume.


Is light and sound matter?

no light and sound is energy not matter because it is the massless partical.


Is light considered to be matter?

No, light is not considered to be matter. It is a form of electromagnetic radiation that does not have mass or occupy space like particles of matter do.


What kinds of things are not matter?

stuff such as sound and light, as sound and light has no volume nor mass.


Is sound and light made up of matter?

Sound is not made up of matter; it is a disturbance that travels through a medium, such as air or water. Light, on the other hand, is made up of electromagnetic waves, which are forms of energy rather than matter.
