Speed of sound depends on temperature. if the temperature is increased speed of sound also increases. Light does not depend it travels in every medium.

Hi dear,
As we know that Sound is a mechanical wave and the speed of sound in air is given by :
v = √(γRT/M) , which depends on temperature .
But , light is an electromagnetic wave and the speed of light wave is given by :
c = √(1/εoμo) , which is independent of temperature .
Hope you get the signs and symbols.
Cheers
