  1. yh, it doesnt affect it if no ones around


  2. Yes. But are you sure it fell. If no one was around to see it fall, maybe it just layed down quietly. Now hear's one for you. Does a one legged duck swim a circle ?

  3. More importantly, if a tree falls in the forest and nobody is around, do the other trees still laugh at it?

  4. yes it dose and it sounds like this "oh sh-t"

  5. It creates the same vibrations in the air and on the ground as it would have if a person was within audible distance, unless the person was deaf. The deaf person may feel the vibrations but not hear anything.

    Noise is in the ear of the beholder. The same natural laws apply whether it is audibly detected or not.

  6. Theoretically yes based on the fact that trees that fall when a person is around they do make a sound but if nobody is around this can never be anything more than a theory.

    to the guy with the duck thing...not if his leg was in the middle of its body....lolz

  7. If it fell on a deaf guy he wouldn't hear it,but he'd be dead.

  8. there is no one there to hear it so to the human ear it does not make a sound so no one wouuld know so this could be a yes, no answer as you could say because of the vibration made the sound but some things vibrate without making noise so i would say no

  9. there are three elements that need to be in place for sound or noise to occur the doer, a medium and and receiver  so since there is not a receiver of the sound then the tree falling would not make noise.

  10. Haven't you ever noticed the little volume k***s, at the base of trees, that automatically turn off when no body is listening?

    Nature thinks of everything.--- It's environmentally friendly, and doesn't waste energy. That's why everything is green.

    Nature often provides canned laughter and a rim-shot ( bodda-bing), when the tree falls just to keep things light, and entertaining for the other trees.

    Ain't nature great?

  11. if no one is around, does the tree even exist?
