Does light energy(waves) affect sound waves...? i read in one post that light affects sound indirectly.If yes how do we relate and calculate that..?

Light and sound are both forms of energy that travel in waves. Light is a form of electromagnetic radiation, while sound is a mechanical wave. Both can be described by their wavelength, frequency, and amplitude.
Light can affect sound in several ways. For example, light can be reflected off of objects and cause sound to bounce off in a certain direction. Light can also be absorbed by objects, which can affect the way sound travels through them. Additionally, light can be used to control sound, such as in laser microphones.
The speed of light is approximately 299,792,458 meters per second in a vacuum. The speed of sound depends on the medium it is traveling through, but it is typically around 343 meters per second in air at room temperature.
Light and sound are both forms of energy that travel in waves. They both have properties such as wavelength, frequency, and amplitude. Both can also be reflected, refracted, and diffracted.
Light and sound differ in several ways. Light is a form of electromagnetic radiation, while sound is a mechanical wave. Light can travel through a vacuum, while sound needs a medium to travel through. Light also travels much faster than sound. Additionally, light can be seen by the human eye, while sound is only audible.
