You can hear around corners, but you can't see around

Why?

Because most objects absorb most light waves and reflect most soundwaves.

>what is a mirror

Because of soundwaves or some shit. I saw a magic school bus ep on it once, it was bangin lol

you could see around corners if walls were mirrors
the walls "mirror" sound but light not that much

You can see AND hear around corners made of glass. Try harder.

for you smell the fart, even you haven't seen nor heard.

what if i peek with one eye?

Because the wavelenght of light is much much smaller than the wavelength of sound

How well a wave diffracts around an opening depends on how the size of the opening compares to the wavelength of the wave.

The wavelengths of light are huge, which is why you usually need shit that's like microns wide to see diffraction of light.

The wavelengths of sound waves are huge, which is why they diffract around corners and shit.

Light moves in a straight line and sound moves in a wave.

The wave function in light just refers to the electromagnetic field, the photons move in a straight line.

If you shine a flashlight directly at a visible wall the light will be stopped by the wall.

If you make a noise at a visible wall, the air will move around the wall and carry the sound with it.

You can see around a corner. The corner just needs to be transparent or translucent.
