In clouds. It is a very, very strong form of static electricity (static is what makes your hair stand up when you rub it with a balloon.)
thunder comes after the lightning. so, the lightning is related to how thunders are form. when lightning strikes, it warms the air surrounded to it. then, when the hot air meets and crash with each other, they make a noise.
Thunder is not electricity itself, but rather the sound that results from the rapid expansion and contraction of air heated by a lightning bolt. Lightning is a discharge of electricity that occurs during a thunderstorm, which can produce the sound we hear as thunder.
Lightning and thunder react with oxygen to form ozone. Thus they help in replenishing the ozone layer.
All tornadoes form in thunderstorms and so are typically accompanied by thunder and lightning.
rains, winds, tornadoes, thunder, and lightning
thunder is the sound of lightning if that is what you are asking
Thunder is not thermal or kinetic energy. Thunder is the sound produced by the rapid expansion of air heated by lightning. Lightning itself is a form of electrical energy converted into heat and light.
The Latin words for thunder and lightning are: Thunder = Tonitrus Lightning = Fulgoris, Fulgor Storm = Procella
Thunder is "heleleʻi" and lightning is "ainalā" in Hawaiian.
Lightning causes thunder. Lightning is a massive electrical discharge that you see as a bolt or flash of light. Thunder is the sound caused when the lightning superheats the air, creating a shockwave.
Thunder is the sound caused by lightning, there is always thunder with lightning. If you cannot hear thunder maybe that is because you are too far away from the storm.
Thunder is formed as a result of the rapid expansion of air heated by a lightning bolt. The intense heat from the lightning bolt causes the surrounding air to rapidly expand and create a shock wave, which we perceive as thunder. The sound of thunder travels slower than the speed of light, which is why we see the lightning before we hear the thunder.
