Q)

Why is the diffraction of sound waves more evident in daily experience than that of light wave ?

For diffraction in light the size of the obstacles should be very small when component to wave length of light which is not common wave length of sound waves is of the order of 15 m to 15 m , which is available For diffraction in light the size of the obstacles should be very large, when compared to its wave length wave length of sound waves is very small, So diffraction of these waves is more evident
