Comparing Light Waves and Sound Waves: Similarities and Differences

In this lesson, students will explore the similarities and differences between light waves and sound waves. Through the use of a Venn diagram, learners will analyze key characteristics such as speed, wave type (transverse vs. longitudinal), medium requirements, frequency, wavelength, and amplitude. Students will write two paragraphs summarizing their understanding of these two types of waves, highlighting how they contribute to our perception of the world. Engaging with these concepts deepens the grasp of wave behavior and properties in physical science.
