A tree falling in the forest still makes sound even if no one is around to hear it because we know that when an object crashes against another on earth, it vibrates the surrounding air, creating sound. The tree is not superpositioned to fall and not fall at the same time, or, make sound and not make sound at the same time. Anyways, trees are not subatomic particles, and so the state of the tree can only be one state, easily measured to be in one position at one time, unlike subatomic particles, which can inhabit multiple positions at the same time, as long as they are not measured. |
i tried telling this lady on the bus exactly that but it was of no use
