Yes because they are both the same electron until its starts lightning they both become negative and attract!
Opposites attract smarty.. they are different groups of protons and electrons. Earth being positive repels the positive charges in the cloud which makes the lower part of the cloud increasingly negative. this difference in charges causes lightning which is a transfer of charges to try and equal out the conflicting balance of positive and negative charges.
Yes, that is true. Lightning is a natural electrical discharge that occurs when there is a buildup and subsequent release of static electricity in the atmosphere. The discharge can happen between clouds, or between a cloud and the ground, resulting in the visible flash of light we see as lightning.
The rubber on the tires keeps the electricity from hitting you
Lightning can happen cloud-to-ground, intra-cloud, and inter-cloud. Lightning is almost every color of the rainbow. lightning is rarely yellow. Lightning doesn't strike the tallest thing, it follows the easiest path.
I think that lightning can happen anywhere in the world but you shouldn't worry about those types of things because lightning is a rare thing unless you live in a harsh, damp or cold environment.
That was the static electricity acumulated in it. You only had your hand thrown back but riguers in the military have rods to touch underneath a cargo helicopter to release the static electricity acumulated in it. That amount is enought to kill person. I have seen happen.
we have no light! when electricity is not discovered!
Lightning is like static electricity, except on a much bigger scale. Both lightning and static electricity happen because of the attraction between the opposite charges. protons, and electrons
Lightning strikes strike near water because water is a good conductor of electricity. Most lightning strikes happen by the ocean because the salt makes it an even better conductor at electricity than fresh water.
Well i don't know about electricity but i know about static electricity. Lightning is like static electricity, except on a much bigger scale. Both lightning and static electricity happen because of the attraction between the opposite charges. When static electricity moves, it is a current. When static electricity in clouds discharges to earth there is a huge, very short current pulse (surge).
The discharge of electricity built up during a storm can be dangerous. It is a static discharge that is generated by positive an negatively charged clouds. When these clouds come in close contact with each other there is an electrical static discharge. This is known as lightning.

Nothing, because the C.N Tower is basically a big lightning rod. So the lightning gets attracted to it.
No. While tornadoes are usually accompanied by lightning and can sometimes produce static discharges, electricity has nothing to do with the way they work.
there would be no electricity no lightning and such.....
