Why does sound behave like light? Is sound light energy?

>>7726386
Yes.

Look up Phonons

sound transfers mechanical energy through the air. Light transfers em radiation through space.

Why do they both wave?

Also, is there a sound equivalent of Ultraviolet? Can you be harmed by sound radiation?

Why do waves behave like waves? (this actually is not a rhetorical question. I want to know)

>>7726403
a sound equivalent of ultraviolet would be.. wait for it... ultrasound, both are simply high pitched waves beyond our recognition

>>7726392
Literally this. Photons and Phonons are both virtual particles caused by the interaction and motion of electric fields

>>7726407
You need to study harmonic oscillators. I don't have the time to spoonfeed it to you but it is worth a Google

>Why do they both wave?
A wave is an oscillation (repetitive variation over time) accompanied by a transfer of energy that travels through space or mass. These are 2 very basic properties that both sound and light have.

>is there a sound equivalent of Ultraviolet
If you mean wavelengths outside the range of human perception, then yes. Ultrasound is sound with a frequency greater than the upper limit of human hearing (greater than 20 kHz).

>Can you be harmed by sound radiation?
Yes. Your eardrums can burst when exposed to extremely high intensity sound. Your hearing can be damaged from prolonged exposure to loud noise. I wonder if your eyeballs would pop if you exposed them to extremely extremely high intensity sound. I guess it is plausible in theory.
