the answer is no it does not make a sound, this is because sound does not exist until someone or something picks it up. nothing actually makes sound, if a tree falls it gives off "VIBRATIONS" and "ENERGY" and that vibration travels for so far, and if it does not reach an eardrum than that vibration never turned into a sound. Humans pick up these vibrations with there ear drums and we take it as a sound, but if an eardrum does not pick it up, its just a lost vibration.
this also applies to a microphone, think of the eardrum as a microphone.
so if a tree falls in the middle of no where and there is no one around to hear it, does it make a sound? no it makes a vibration and an energy.
Of course it will, just because no one is there doesn't mean there won't be sound.
Well, it could be heard by animals, but you hear sounds when vibrations vibrate against your eardrum, so it could not be a sound too.
The sound of a tree falling in an empty forest, doesn't exist, because sound is only sound if it is heard by something. A falling tree without someone hearing it fall, makes no sound.
If it's on the ground then it would be fair assumption that it did indeed fall, regardless of whether anyone heard it.
No. If no one is there then it is only making vibrations. Someone has to be there to perceive the vibrations as sound.
Yes, the tree fell regardless of whether someone heard it or not. The falling of the tree is a physical event that occurred regardless of an observer.
Yes, according to the scientific definition of sound, it is the vibration of particles that propagate as a mechanical wave. So, a sound is produced even if there is no one to hear it. Therefore, if a tree falls when no one is around, it does create sound waves, even if there is no observer.
A sound wave ... Although if the tree falls in the forest and no one is there to hear it does it make a sound? :))
Actaully this is a trick question the real answer is how do you know nobody is there to hear it. no it is not a trick question--- it is searching for the defionation of sound and not the reception of it other people also say either yes or no. yes:because when a tree falls vibrations are created and either if someone is around to hear it or not it will still make a noise. no:because even though a tree makes vibrations if no one is around to hear it but how do we know for sure it makes a knows.... if someone were to test this it would be incredible.
no, he is too busy beating off
The phrase "If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?" is a philosophical question that has been attributed to a variety of sources, including Bishop George Berkeley and George Washington Carver. It is often used to prompt discussion about the nature of reality and perception.
Gravity. It falls when it gets heavy.
Yes. Even though no one is there, if the tree doesn't find something to "Dampen" it's fall, it will make a loud sound... -Have a nice Day! --Theoretically: Yes, Hypothetically: No
The phrase "If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?" is commonly attributed to the philosopher George Berkeley. However, it may have actually originated with the philosopher William of Ockham.
because no one is around to hear it!
If a tree falls in the woods does anyone hear it?
the real question is, will anyone hear it?
