The lightning tries to hit you but the building block it, you are safe.
it absorbs the electricity and puts it into the ground
By getting it to strike something else instead. Benjamin Franklin invented the lightning Rod to do this. It diverts the lightning to the earth through a good metal conductor when placed higher than the house and planted in the earth/ground.
No, lead cannot protect you from lightning. Lightning is a powerful electrical discharge that can travel through any conductive material, including lead. The best way to protect yourself from lightning is to seek shelter indoors or in a fully enclosed metal vehicle.
people can protect themselves by staying awwy from large buildings
A lightening conductor is a thick copper wire or strip that connects a spike secured onto the tallest point of a building to a long copper earth pole that is hammered deep into the ground at the side of the building. It protects the building from lightning strikes, by providing an easier path for current to flow to earth than through the building. In the event of a direct lightning strike, the current in the conductor may be so great as to melt or even vaporize the metal, but the damage to the building will nevertheless be limited.
well a lightning rod will help a structure by channelling the lightning round the structure rather than on it and it will send the lightning into the ground so it cant hurt anything/anyone a simpler explanation would be that it channels the lightning away from the structure oh by the way I am 12 years old
Lightning conductors or rods, protect a building from lightning hits by harmlessly draining of the electrical charge thereby preventing fire or other damage. Churches with steeples that tower over surrounding buildings and trees would be especially likely to attract lightning.
Benjamin Frankiln. To protect buildings from lightning
Yes, install a lightning rod.
Yes, but they're not 'phase' conductors, they're 'line' conductors.
Benjamin FranklinBenjamin Franklin
Protect the high buildings, structures from lightning using lightning spike, lightning mast , earth wire.
Ground wireAnswerIt's a (lightning) protection wire, designed to protect the line conductors from lightning strikes.
Lightening rods.
Lightning rods, metal spikes placed on roofs attached to a grounding wire.
they protect themselves by making the buildings stronger. or taking out electricity. they wouldn't just they build these buildings when they think about it... well lightning happens any time.
you can sdtay in safe homes
The lightning rod/conductor.
