Polarization is a property of light waves, but not of sound waves. Polarization refers to the orientation of the electric field in a wave. Sound waves are longitudinal waves with compressions and rarefactions, which do not have an electric field orientation. Frequency, wavelength, and amplitude are properties of both light and sound waves.
