If a tree falls over in a forest and there's nobody there does it make a noise?

No it keeps "stump" as there's no one to listen!

Of course it does. Sound is contractions & rarifactions of air which would occur. But noise is unwanted sound so if there was nobody there to receive the sound it would not be noise.

If you dream you are falling down a well, and you hit the bottom, then you are dead.
Same question - who knows?

if you scream and scream and scream, but nobody is there, are you making a noise?
