Sound only exists if their is something to percieve it,

otherwise it's just a load or rarefactions and compressions of a gas. These need to be interpreted as sound by an ear and brain. I knew my City & Guilds in sound engineering would come in handy one day.

Question for the Scientific Calculator Ultras: Does the Sun make noise? (NCFC) - MIKEWALKER, Nov 2, 09:24:00
- About time you started that Science Homework... slacker. (n/m) (NCFC) - Pixelman, Nov 2, 09:54:30
- Sound only exists if their is something to percieve it, (NCFC) - maidstoneyellow, Nov 2, 09:46:23
  - also if you got near enough to the sun to hear it you'd singe your lug (NCFC) - Tombs, Nov 2, 09:54:06
- Yeah, contrary to people who say it's in a vacuum (NCFC) - Charles21, Nov 2, 09:41:37
  - you can turn it off in settings (NCFC) - Tombs, Nov 2, 09:43:59
- It's a nuclear fusion reaction 1.3 million times larger than our entire planet. (NCFC) - Arizona Bay, Nov 2, 09:33:13
  - A concise, legible answer, at last. Is the sun in a vacuum though?Is this confirmed? (n/m) (NCFC) - MIKEWALKER, Nov 2, 09:34:56
    - It is in as near as a perfect vacuum as makes any difference. (NCFC) - Arizona Bay, Nov 2, 09:51:20
    - no, not a perfect vacuum (n/m) (NCFC) - Ralf Scrampton, Nov 2, 09:39:04
      - so AB is wrong? His theory is bunkum, yes? (n/m) (NCFC) - MIKEWALKER, Nov 2, 09:40:31
        
        no, because space is a close to a perfect vacuum as you'll ever get (n/m) (NCFC) - Ralf Scrampton, Nov 2, 09:43:30
        
        I think James Dyson might have something to say about that, sunshine. (n/m) (NCFC) - MIKEWALKER, Nov 2, 09:48:01
        
        James Dyson would move the sun to Malaysia to exploit cheap labour and materials (NCFC) - Arizona Bay, Nov 2, 09:58:06
        
        vmt... the twatrag. (n/m) (NCFC) - Pixelman, Nov 2, 10:09:47
        
        nothing worth listening to though, pal (n/m) (NCFC) - Ralf Scrampton, Nov 2, 09:49:23
        
        even more than a top of the range thermos? (NCFC) - Tombs, Nov 2, 09:45:16
        
        Inside the LHC, the vacuum is comparable to interstellar space (NCFC) - Old Man, Nov 2, 09:48:31
        
        you wouldn't want two pints of cullen skink rattling around in there though would you? (NCFC) - Tombs, Nov 2, 09:51:02
        
        it'd keep a choc-ice cold for eternity though, a thermos deffo couldn't manage that (n/m) (NCFC) - Ralf Scrampton, Nov 2, 09:47:43
        
        you can't just pop space into your glovebox though so in terms of practicality the thermos (NCFC) - Tombs, Nov 2, 09:56:46
        
        Well, space should be always in your glove box, frankly. (n/m) (NCFC) - APB, Nov 2, 10:27:14
- Depends where you're asking (NCFC) - Old Man, Nov 2, 09:32:35
  - ta pal. I appreciated the musical analogy on the day of Cauty and Drummond chat (n/m) (NCFC) - MIKEWALKER, Nov 2, 09:39:25
- no (NCFC) - Tombs, Nov 2, 09:30:51
  - I bet Cauty and Drummond could make a record that was louder and better than the sun. (n/m) (NCFC) - MIKEWALKER, Nov 2, 09:32:03
    - the evidence would suggest yes (NCFC) - Tombs, Nov 2, 09:38:26
      - Didn;t they want to build a pyramid from bricks that would represent (NCFC) - MIKEWALKER, Nov 2, 09:47:19
- The Sun makes a lot of xenophobic noise (n/m) (NCFC) - colincanary, Nov 2, 09:27:42
  - Ok (n/m) (NCFC) - colincanary, Nov 2, 09:32:22
    - you can't even reply in the correct place, pal. You're no science ultra. (n/m) (NCFC) - MIKEWALKER, Nov 2, 09:35:36
  - Colin, pls pack the humour away, you're not qualified to answer my Question. (n/m) (NCFC) - MIKEWALKER, Nov 2, 09:29:35
    - Meet you under the Tyne Bridge for a FIGHT (n/m) (NCFC) - colincanary, Nov 2, 09:55:11
      - Aye aye Jimmy Nails had a bottle of broon (n/m) (NCFC) - MIKEWALKER, Nov 2, 10:01:51
