no.

that is not true because, you have to think "well what can I clap on one hand for it to make a sound?" or "is my clapping metaphorical as in silent applause?"

there are many answers to this but there wouldn't be a definite "yes" or "no"

Well.... No. Clapping is useing both hands and hitting them against eachother to make a sound, you cannot make a sound useing only one hand. Unless you use a object or another hand. There for there is no sound of one hand clapping.

No, clapping requires two hands coming together to create a sound. If you try to clap with just one hand, you won't generate enough force to create an audible sound.

Can Obama clap with one hand?

no,people can not clap with one hand you have to have to hands so the sound would bounce of or echo of.in geological terms it is hypothedicaley impossible. I find that answer quite strange I know a couple of people that manage quite well to clap with one hand. The one has trouble moving his right arm at time and claps by slapping his thigh. The other lad unfortunately has only one hand and manages to show his appreciation (clap) by slapping his thigh as well. If these lads can do it then so can President Barack Obama


What is the sound made by one hand clapping?

This is called a loaded question. Loaded questions contain false or questionable assumptions. The classic example is "Do you still beat your dog?" This question assumes that the person owns a dog and that the dog has been beaten. If either of these assumptions are false the question cannot be answered with "yes" or "no", correct answers expose the false assumptions contained within the question. Answers might be "I do not own a dog" or "I have never beaten my dog." In our question the assumption is that one hand can clap and thereby make a sound. The answer to this question will be determined by how we define "clapping," which will then determine if the assumption it contains is true or false. If we define clapping as "two hands slapping together, thereby producing a sound," then the assumption that one hand can clap is false and the answer should then expose the false assumption. The answer would then be "one hand cannot clap." However, if we define clapping as "one hand slapping another object, thereby producing a sound," then the assumption is true, clapping only requires one hand, and the answer to the question is simply "a clapping sound".

How do you make a loud sound on a flute?

You take your four fingers in one hand and slap them in your palm in the other hand. You can also slam both palms together, which creates a deeper sounding clap. There's also a way to clap louder than everyone else. You can do this by slapping your palms together when they are directly parallel from each other, so that all the air and sound escapes from the area that your hands have clapped.
