Each lightning "strike" is typically many (perhaps a hundred) bursts of electrons moving in ever longer paths from the earth to a cloud or between clouds. It is rare for a lightning bolt to strike the same location on different occasions but lightning rods will conduct electricity and many have done so for a great number of lightning strikes.
This doesn't really make sense because there is no specific time span between lightning strikes. The only thing I can say is that if the lightning is brighter, than it is no more than three miles way from where you are currently. And I'm not talking about altitude either.
The odds of a lightning strike do not necessarily increase after an initial strike. Each lightning strike is an independent event, and the odds of the next strike are determined by various factors such as weather conditions and geographical location. While lightning can be more likely during certain weather patterns, there is no direct correlation between subsequent strikes based on a previous one.
it is the kenetic energy produced by water molecules rubbing against each other that's also why lightning is hot because of the molecules rubing together and heating up Electric charge is not kinetic energy. Lightning is Electrostatic charge finding its way back to earth, from where it originally came. The electrical energy is converted to heat in the materials it strikes.
Lightning can reach up to 50,000'f degrees
Florida has the the highest lightning strike density in the USA. There are about 8 million lightning strikes around the world each day. The odds of being struck by lightning in your life are 5000 to 1. The earth is struck by lightning 100 times each second.
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.
Using a cell phone does not make you more vulnerable to lightning strikes, but an average of 60 people die each year from lightning strikes in the United States. The NOAA advises people to stay indoors, to not use electrical appliances and avoid bathing during lightning storms.
The Empire Statebuilding located in New York is strucked by lightning 100 times each year. The Empire Statebuilding located in New York is strucked by lightning 100 times each year. The Empire Statebuilding located in New York is strucked by lightning 100 times each year.
According to NOAA, an average 40-50 people in the United States are killed by lightning each year. Lightning strikes are secondly only to flooding when it comes to deadly weather.
There are no clear statistics. One estimate is that 24,000 people are killed by lightning strikes around the world each year and about 240,000 are injured. Another estimate is that the annual global death toll is 6,000.

No. Lightning and propulsion systems that we currently use have no relation to each other. Lightning is an atmospheric phenomenon and there is no atmosphere in space. The only thing along this line of thinking that may be distantly related is the theory of using an ion drive as a propulsion system. According to the theory, this may allow spacecraft to approach the speed of light. Ions are produced during lightning strikes, so there is a slight correlation.

Lightining strikes. Most people think shark fatalities but that is incorrect. More people are killed each year by lightning strikes than by sharks. I've had various neighbors houses that have been struck.

In the book "Tangerine," Paul Fisher's soccer uniform at Tangerine Middle School was gold and green.
