Light waves are transverse. Their properties include wavelength, frequency, and amplitude. Light waves can be absorbed, reflected, or refracted. An object's color depends on the colors of white light it absorbs and reflects. Sound travels through matter as compression waves. The frequency and amplitude of sound waves are related to the pitch and volume of sounds.
