five points of Difference between sound wave and light wave



difference between sound waves and light waves sound waves need a material medium for the propagationlight. waves do not need a material medium for their propagation they can travel even through vacuum sound. ...waves are transverse sound waveshave a very low speed of about 350 meters per second in air at room.
