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.

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.

Which philosopher wrote if a tree falls in the forest and no one is around to hear it does it make a sound?

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.
