Name the subjective property of sound related to its frequency and of light related to its wavelength.
(N/A) The subjective property of sound waves,which is related to its frequency,is known as its $pitch$.
As the frequency of sound increases,the $pitch$ also increases.
The subjective property of light,which is related to its wavelength,is known as the $colour$ of light.
Different wavelengths of light correspond to different perceived $colours$ in the visible spectrum.
