Radio waves are a form of electromagnetic radiation, not sound. While both light and radio waves are part of the electromagnetic spectrum, they differ in terms of their frequency and wavelength.

Light, including visible light, is a narrow range of electromagnetic waves that humans can perceive with their eyes. Light waves have shorter wavelengths and higher frequencies compared to radio waves. They propagate through space as well as some transparent materials, such as air or glass.

On the other hand, radio waves have much longer wavelengths and lower frequencies than visible light. They are used for long-distance communication and broadcasting. Radio waves can travel through the atmosphere, buildings, and other obstacles. They are produced by various sources, such as antennas and transmitters, and are received and interpreted by radios or other electronic devices.

While both light and radio waves are forms of electromagnetic radiation, the distinction lies in their specific wavelengths, frequencies, and the way they are detected and utilized by different technologies.
