They are the same.I think? A cornet is shorter because of the way it is configured but they both have the same length of tubing.

If you mean which plays lower, neither. A B-flat Trumpet plays exactly the same notes as a B-flat cornet.

What is the differen ce of a trumpet and cornet?

A trumpet is longer than a cornet and the mouthpieces are a little different on the end that goes into the instrument. A cornet's is smaller around and shorter. Also, a cornet has a slightly mellower sound. They are very interchangeable. If you can play one, you can play the other. They sound pretty much the same and you can play trumpet music on a cornet, and vise versa. Some older music will have trumpet and cornet music, but it doesn't matter which the music is played on.

How do you adapt a trumpet mouthpiece to a cornet?

You would have to make some kind of adapter that would allow the larger trumpet mouthpiece fit into the smaller cornet leadpipe. I don't think anyone does that. It's easier, and more correct, just to buy a cornet mouthpiece since a cornet mouthpiece is designed specifically to fit a cornet.
