yes its because when water is frozen the mobility of the movement of the electrons within the ice is significantly reduced.as the icy lattice structure of the ice cube forms,the electrons become rigid, and unmoving and their ability to conduct electricity is reduced.
Lightning tends to strike tall objects such as trees. When lightning does strike a tree it can kill or injure people and animals underneath it.
lightning is attracted to the taller objects in any open space .so being near tall trees in an open space is dangerous. The lightning can "jump" from the tree through the air to your body if it finds that your body, with its high salt content, is an easier conductor.
No. It hits the closest point of least resistance. In practice, this is usually the nearest highest point, but given a choice between, say, a tall granite building and a shorter metal pole, lightning will chose the metal pole because it is more conductive to electricity.
no it does not
Lightning tends to strike tall objects such as trees. If the tree you are under is hit by lightning, the charge may travel through the ground and into you, which can seriously injure or kill you. Additionally, lightning sometimes flash-boils the sap in a tree, causing it to explode. This, too can injure or kill you.
The cloud sends down electrons to the ground and when it finds a substance lightning can travel through than a discharge travels up to the cloud, the lightning. If you stand on rubber lightning wont discharge.
Lightning harns a tree by harming the roots of a tree and that affects how the tree grows
lightning does not require water vapour in the air. It travels at light speed (approx) through an ionized path.
No, this is not a good idea. Lightening can strike a water line anywhere and travel through the pipes to the tub.Yes you can, it is the car that you can't be in,or also you can't be under a tree.
It travels at the same speed.

Fulgurites are objects of natural glass that are formed in certain instances when lightning strikes and fuses rock or silica sand. Technically, fulgerites are a form of igneous rock, but they are not referred to as 'lightning balls'. Ball lightning is a completely different and controversial topic.
The lightning superheats the water within the tree causing it to violently expand and split the tree open.
Wood is a good insulater not conductor. metal is a good conductor not insulater,for the same reason.metal has free electrons and wood does not. Lighting will destroy a tree because of the huge amount of electric current but ordinarily it have no affect.
