If you mean hearing thunder right after a lightning, it is because sound travels slower than light, and thus, you would hear the thunder a bit later than seeing a lightning strike.
If you hear thunder in the distance you should find a safe place get a flashlight and stay as far away as possible from water.
well, if your far away then no. you wouldn't be able to hear the thunder. if how ever, you are close to the thunder storm you will hear thunder.
You often hear thunder when you see lightning because lightning produces a sudden and rapid heating of the air around it, causing it to expand quickly. This rapid expansion creates a shock wave that we hear as thunder. The farther away you are from the lightning, the longer it takes for the sound to reach you.
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.
If you see lightning but don't hear thunder, it means the lightning is far away. The speed of light is much faster than the speed of sound, so you usually see lightning before you hear the associated thunder.
Count each second when you see Lightning, until when you hear Thunder, divide it by 3, and for example 60 divided by 3 makes 20 right, so that means that it is 20 miles away, so that's your answer, Thunder that is heard one minute after the Lightning is 20 miles away.
lightning heats the air which we hear as thunder
was it Shawn Phillips? And that is hear.
You don't see thunder. You hear thunder. You hear thunder after seeing the lightning because light travels faster than sound. The further the storm away is, the bigger the time between when you see the lightning and hear the thunder.
I can always hear thunder in thunder and lightning, everyone can, except for deaf people of course because they can't hear anything.
It depends on if the storm is right on top of you or a couple miles away to know how many miles away you are from a storm wait for lighting to come then count until you hear thunder and the last number you stopped on is how far away the storm is
Dogs can hear thunder from up to 3-4 miles away due to their sensitive hearing. The loud noise of thunder can cause fear and anxiety in dogs, leading to behaviors such as hiding, shaking, or seeking comfort from their owners.
