In one way they are.
They both travel.
sound travels lets say from your mouth to the teachers ear.
and light travels from the lightbulb in the flashlight to the wall in the living room.
Sure. Light won't act as a medium to carry the sound, but you can certainly send sound waves through a medium that happens to be illuminated by light at the same time. You do this every time you talk to your wife during the daytime. Also, data for sound can be sent using light, like in Morse Code and fiber optics.
Since this answer can be updated afterwards, I am confortable to give you a provisory or definitive one.
Light is characterized by wave lenght and sound by frequency. Both have their particular speed.
yes
yes except light is a transverse wave, and sound is longitudinal wave and needs a median to travel through (which is why light waves can travel through space and sound waves can not)
Light is silent, it produces no sound. However, with the right kind of equipment, it is possible to convert a signal in a laser beam into sound; phone conversations can be carried by light in a fiber optic cable.
With some intermediate steps, yes.
If the light hits a photoelectric cell it is converted to electricity that can charge an MP3 player that can play music.
When sunlight hits a metal roof, the roof expands and you can hear pings and creaks. That is light being transformed into sound.
No, never. But in Science Fiction films even in the outer space in vacuum they play us music. Sound we can hear is between 20 Hz and 16,000 Hz. There are no audible light frequencies.
No it doesnt it wood not be possible
Sound waves reflect from objects. This is the echo. But a smooth surface and distance is required for this to occur. Sound moves at 343 meters per second in dry air at 20 degrees so if you make a sound and hear an echo 3 seconds afterwards the structure that reflected the sound is 1029 metres away. A distant wall, cliff, etc can act like a mirror to sound. Sound travels much slower than light ( 1715 metres in 5 seconds) so you get the sound wave back after a delay.
Sound waves cannot travel through a vacuum because it needs a medium and a vacuum has nothing within it that can act as a medium.
It depends if it is a transparent object it may split the light and make colors, like what a crystal does. You can see colors because of whatever the light shines on, it does NOT attract the color you see. (don't know how to say that...)
Sound energy is in the form of a wave.
Sound waves act on the eardrum, which drives a set of three tiny bones, of which the stirrup acts upon the Oval Window of the Cochlea, thus inducing pressure waves in the fluid of that organ. These waves move the signal hairs and thus their nerves which communicate with the brain.
In some ways light act like waves, in others like particles.
That means that light exhibits some of the phenomena that are typical for waves, such as diffraction and interference.
Sound being a longitudinal mechanical wave needs a medium to propagate. In a vacuum (like the outer space), there is no matter to act as the medium and thus sound waves can not propagate.

spherical waves at far distance act like plane wave
Most likely gravity believe it or not, the sound waves travel differently :)
... particles.... particles.... particles.... particles.
Electromagnetic waves (such as light), do not require a medium like mechanical waves (sound). Thus, matter that lie in its path actually slow it down, since the particles, rather than helping the waves propagate (as in mechanical waves), act as obstacles to the propagation of the wave. Since hydrogen has a lower density than air, there is a lower number of particles per given amount of area, thus the EM wave encounters less resistance to its propagation, thus the wave travels faster.
The outer ear helps sound to travel to the inner ear. It is responsible for collecting sound waves and directing them to the middle ear via the auditory canal.
