Detailed explanation-1: -"If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?” is a philosophical thought experiment that raises questions regarding observation and perception.

Detailed explanation-2: -If sound is vibrations, then the falling tree certainly does make a sound, because it produces vibrations in the air. Even if there’s no person or other animal around to hear the sound, a recorder with a microphone could certainly record those vibrations-as sound.

Detailed explanation-3: -Measure the distance to the base of the tree from the stick on the ground, using a tape measure or by counting your paces. If the tree base is 35 feet away from the stick, for instance, the tree’s top will land about 35 feet from the base after it falls.
