Sound waves travel through matter. Our atmosphere is a mixture of gases which is a form of matter. Sound waves will travel through our atmosphere, even if there is no human ear to receive it.
If a tree falls in a forest, it can create sound waves that travel through the air. These sound waves are produced by the impact of the tree hitting the ground and can be perceived by nearby animals or humans if they are within range of the sound.
If a tree falls but nobody is around to hear it, the tree will not make a sound. It will make sound waves, but it isn't sound unless somebody is around to transfer the waves into actual sound.
Yeah, but I wouldn't say high speed. It depends on the size and weight of the tree in order to travel quickly. Also, you must be in the radius of where the tree falls.
yes if a tree does fall in a forest it does make a sound because it is not a vacuum (where few or no particles are ; space) the air around it has matter and a medium so the compressions and rarefactions travel through a medium and create sound waves and the tree vibrates so the answer is yes if a tree falls in a forest it does make a sound.
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.
Yes because sound waves exist even if people aren't in the area.
Yes, the falling tree will generate sound waves whether or not there is anyone there to hear them. Sound is a vibration that travels through the air, and the falling tree will create these vibrations regardless of whether someone is there to perceive them.
Yes because, the speed of sound has a mathematical equation that has been proven to be 100% accurate. Man doesn't have to be present in order for it to exist. Just like the speed of light has an actual calculation and so does the speed of sound.
No, because a tree falls in the middle of the woods and there is no one around to hear it, so it can't make a sound! A sound is something you hear. It would make a noise.yes it does make a sound because if something falls it gives off sound waves. the sound waves move out further and further, but the sound waves stop after a while. just because you cant hear doesnt mean its not there......its like yelling at someone who is deaf with someone right beside you. the deaf person cant hear you but the person that's not deaf can hear you because your voice gives off sound waves!
yes but you cant hear it i agree with this because the animals are still going to run away.
Well of course he is. An entire forest can fall and men will still be wrong.Yes we would be........Damned if we tell the truth, and damned if we don't. Either way, we're up a tree.Maybe that's why the tree fell? And the moral of that is.....if men would keep their feet planted firmly on the ground, they wouldn't have to be "up a tree".
it depends, if you are talking about hearing it as the emission of sound waves then yes. a tree falling in a forest would make a sound but if you are talking about perception, there is no person to hear the sound. so the tree makes a sound but nobody hears it
