If a tree falls in a forest, with no one around for miles, does it still make a sound?

well, does it?

Maybe we should leave some recording equipment in the forest to find out - that way nobody has to be near it when it happens

obviously it does. sound waves aren't dependant upon the presence of a human.

I just thought of something...


All observed falling trees make a sound. Therefore, it could be said that all falling trees will make a sound, unless proven otherwise

I've asked this before and I'm asking it again: if a tree falls in the forest and no one's around to hear it, will the other trees help it up and stop it from crying?

I think the whole point of that question is just to point out that sound isnt a sound until it reaches someones/somethings ears. So therefore is nothings around to hear it...there is no sound.

I dont think i explained myself too well...if anyone gets what i mean please reply!

Right well ill try to explain it some more...sound is transmitted in waves. Sound is just waves unless it gets processed in someones ear. Well if there is no ear to process it, it stays as waves...so it isnt a sound.

Still isnt explained...but ah well.

I have another profound question about school buses...You know how they open and close from the inside, right? Well, how do the drivers close the doors when they park them for the night? And how do they get back in in the morning?

Just my random thought.
