What kind of cloud forms lightning?
Cumulonimbus clouds form lightning

A stratus cloud
Where does lightning land?
One kind of lightning is a connection between two charged clouds. But you asked where it "lands", so you must be thinking about the other kind. Lightning is a connection between a charged cloud and the Earth. If there are objects around that can provide an easy path to the Earth, like trees, houses, skyscraper buildings, or steel radio towers, then lightning will take advantage of them and use them for part of its path. But even if there's nothing around that's any higher than the ground, and the lightning is forced to make the entire trip through air, it'll do that, and eventually connect the charged cloud to the Earth. I've written this carefully, to avoid any reference to one direction or the other, because lightning can travel up, from the ground to the cloud, just as easily as it can travel down, from the cloud to the ground.
Is lightning positive or negative?
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
What kind of cloud formations will you see during lightning?
Cumulonimbus. big billowing clouds that look like mushrooms.
What kind of cloud does a funnel cloud become when it touches the ground?
When a funnel cloud touches the ground, it becomes a tornado. Tornadoes are characterized by rotating columns of air extending from a cloud to the ground. They can be incredibly destructive and are classified based on the damage they cause using the Enhanced Fujita Scale.
What kind of electricity is lightning an example?
Lightning is an example of static electricity
What kind of cloud touches the ground?
A fog cloud is a type of cloud that touches the ground. Fog is formed when moist air near the ground cools down to the point where it can no longer hold all of its moisture, leading to condensation and the formation of fog.
What kind of cloud is a rotating column of air that doesn't touch the ground?
A rotating column of air that does not touch the ground is typically referred to as a funnel cloud. Funnel clouds are associated with severe thunderstorms and tornadoes, and they can form from rotating updrafts within the storm's cloud base. If a funnel cloud reaches the ground, it becomes a tornado.
What kind of energy does clouds that produce lightning have?
Clouds that produce lightning have electrical energy. This energy is generated by the separation of positive and negative charges within a cloud, which results in the discharge of lightning as a way to balance these charges.
