Wavelength- The measure of distance between sound waves, it's used to measure the length of a sound wave

Frequency- The measure of time and how the sound waves themselves occur

Wavelength and frequency of light are closely related. The higher the frequency, the shorter the wavelength. Because all light waves move through a vacuum at the same speed, the number of wave crests passing by a given point in one second depends on the wavelength.
