No, sound waves are invisible because it is actually a longitudinal wave caused by compressions and rarefactions. The propagation of sound waves cannot be seen, unlike what is perhaps portrayed in some Cartoons for entertainment purposes. But if you are talking about a computer applet to demonstrate sound waves, then yes, it can come in colour.

Is the hue decibels amplitude and wavelengths characteristics of light waves and sound waves?

Hue refers to the color of light waves, while decibels measure the amplitude or loudness of sound waves. Wavelength is a characteristic of both light and sound waves, representing the distance between two consecutive points of a wave that are in phase.

What is the relationship between sound, light, and frequency?

Sound, light, and frequency are all forms of waves that can be measured in terms of frequency. Sound waves are vibrations in the air that we hear, while light waves are electromagnetic radiation that we see. Frequency is the number of waves that pass a point in a certain amount of time, and it determines the pitch of sound and the color of light. Sound and light waves can interact with each other, such as in the phenomenon of sound waves creating light in a process called sonoluminescence.
