Why can you hear around a corner, but not SEE around a corner?

• Light waves can diffract easily, while sound waves can not diffract since they only travel in straight lines

• Sound waves can diffract easily, while light waves can not diffract since they only travel in straight lines

• Light waves can refract easily, while sound waves can not refract since they only travel in straight lines

• Sound waves can refract easily, while light waves can not refract since they only travel in straight lines
