What charge does lightning have?
Lightning has an negative charge
Why does green attract lightning?
because it creates a charge and lightning needs eather a negitive charge or a positive charge
Why does the lightning is 3 times heat than the sun?
It isn't The Sun's temperature is measured at roughly 5,750 degrees Kelvin Lightning carries an electrical charge, and as such isn't measured in degrees, but in volts (can be tens of millions of volts) When lightning strikes something it can raise it's temperature from the discharge of electricity, but lightning itself doesn't not inherently have a temperature
What charge does a lightning acquire?
A bolt of lightning is almost pure electrons ... so the charge is negative.
Is lightning AC or DC voltage?
Lightning is static electricity. It's a buildup of charge, and it is facilitated by charge separation. In that light, it is DC.
How is charge separated in a lightning bolt?
The charge separates.
Does is lightning from the sun?
The question is confusing. Which of these questions are you asking: 1. Is lightning from the sun? 2. Does lightning occur on the sun? 3. Does lightning power the sun? 4. Can you answer something ridiculous because I'm bored? I'm going to assume you are asking question 1. Lightning can be hotter than the surface of the sun; it is not a direct by-product. Lightning is indirectly caused by the sun. Let's say the sun heats up the earth and there is moisture in the air. The hot air will become light and rise quickly, creating a heat difference with the surface. This causes ice to form in the sky and positive and negative electrons to be split by the ice. So, the positive electrons will keep rising and the negative ones will keep falling. The air will become ionized, which allows charge to move more freely. If the positive air can channel to the negative air or to ground, all of the charge that was built-up will flow quickly with intense heat.
Is lightning hotter than the core of the sun?
No. The Sun's core is 16000000 Celsius while lightning a typical lightning bolt is about 25000 Celsius. However, lightning is several times hotter than the surface of the sun.
What is charge of lightning?
the charge of a lightning is positive and negative. The positive is on the top of a lightning cloud and the negative is surrounded on the bottom. As it flashes down it is a negative. However, the ground is a positive charge so as it reaches down, it turns into a positive charge. I hope this will answer you question
Is it true that Lightning results from an accumulation of electrostatic charge.?
Yes, that's basically what lightning is about - a discharge of this accumulated charge.
What is the lightning between clouds?
Lightning is just really large static. Lightning between clouds is called cloud lightning or sheet lightning and is caused when one cloud has an excessive charge and another cloud has an excessive amount of the opposite cloud. The lightning is used to relieve the clouds charge.
When lightning strikes a lightning rod Where is the last place the charge flows?
A lightning rod is grounded, meaning it connects to the ground, and the ground is the last place the charge flows to. It is absorbed into the planet Earth.
