What forms of energy are vital for life on earth?
The key forms of energy vital for life on Earth are solar energy, which powers photosynthesis in plants to produce food, and chemical energy, stored in the bonds of molecules like glucose for fuel. Both of these forms of energy are used by organisms to carry out their life processes and sustain growth and reproduction.
How many decibels is lightning when it strikes?
When lightning strikes, it can produce a sound of about 120 decibels.
When static electricity is discharged rapidly what forms of energy can be produced?
When static electricity is discharged rapidly, it can produce electromagnetic radiation, heat, light, and sound energy. These forms of energy are a result of the rapid movement and release of electrons during the discharge process.
How many decibels is a lightning strike when it occurs?
A lightning strike can produce sound levels of up to 120 decibels.
Can lightning energy be caught stored and used?
If lightning could be fully harnessed, the energy captured could power the world. The energy in every lightning event is huge and scientists have been seeking ways to capture the energy. There are two problems that have not been overcome and prevent lightning being useful. The first is that the location of lightning is unpredictable. There is little point in mounting a lighting capture device (if one existed) in a location to find that lightning does not strike in that location. Guiding a lightning strike is in the same order of difficulty as taming a hurricane or altering the tides. Next, when lighting does strike, it releases so much energy that it is almost impossible to build a device that can capture and store any of the energy. and other structures. Electrical and electronic equipment is damaged by lighting strikes and so far, attempts at capturing any part of the energy have been experimental, cumbersome and very inefficient. The research will continue and in the future, it may be possible to see domestic energy derived from lightning. But, we have a long way to go before we see it. In theory, a lightning does have useful energy. But I am not aware of any machine that actually makes use of it. You may have to invent one yourself. Note that you need not wait for a lightning to strike - there is an electric potential between the upper atmosphere and the ground. This is what causes lightning in the first place, but you could directly tap the electric potential instead of waiting for a lightning flash. =========== In theory lightning energy could be captured and stored in a battery or capacitor for later use - BUT - there are major problems: 1) it would be exceedingly difficult to position the nodes to the exact location where the lightning would strike in order to capture the energy. Your best bet would be to try to capture the energy from a lightning rod, which is designed to be more likely to be where the lightning hits than the surrounding area. Even so, only a very small fraction of the lightning in an area would actually hit the lightning rod. (difficult to catch lightning) 2) The amount of energy in a lightning bolt is so high and delivered in such a short time (around 5 billion Joules in 30 microseconds) that it would be difficult to store that much energy that quickly. Batteries store electricity via chemical reactions and reactions do not occur instantaneously; molecules and molecular radicals can only move so fast so reactions take a noticeable finite time. You may have noticed that when you want to charge your cell phone up it takes some time - it's not instant. As a result you can only store energy in a battery at a certain rate - the rate of the chemical reaction. You would need an exceedingly large battery - or bank of batteries in parallel - to begin to capture a significant portion of the energy in such a short time. (difficult to store the energy). Recent attempts to capture and store lightning energy tried to use a combination of batteries and capacitors. 3) If the energy from lightning were stored in a large bank of batteries it would be so spread out among them that they would tend to produce only a feeble - but long lasting - current since each battery would only have absorbed a small amount of the total energy. (difficult to use the stored energy) so - yeah - lightning energy can be caught stored and used - just not efficiently or easily With that said - nature actually does store and use some of the energy of lighting strikes. Lighting creates a lot of ozone which is very reactive and can drive chemical reactions (energy stored in the ozone). Lightning creates nitrogen compounds which can act as natural fertilizers for plants. Lighting also powers other chemical reactions which store some of the energy of lightning in the chemical bonds of the produced chemicals. Most of the energy, however, just gets dissipated as heat.
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.
What 4 forms of energy does lightning give off?
Bob
How do you make lightning in little alchemy?
To create lightning in Little Alchemy, combine the elements of "energy" and "cloud." First, make "energy" by combining "fire" and "wind." Then, combine this energy with a cloud to produce lightning.
How is sound created during a lightning storm?
Lightning is a form of energy, it builds up in the clouds and when it is released you see the energy but the sound forms because the lightning has so much energy it splits the air molecules.
What cloud is lightning formed in?
Lightning typically forms in cumulonimbus clouds, also known as thunderclouds. These clouds are characterized by their towering height and are associated with intense thunderstorms that can produce lightning bolts.

How can produce electricity from thunder light?
we can produce the electricity how i can explain energy is universal constant we now that energy is neither be created not be destroyed so we want to know that why the thunder is produced and then we can made artificial and we can generate power
what are the 5 forms of energy and it's example?
The five forms of energy are: Mechanical energy - a moving car Thermal energy - boiling water Chemical energy - a battery Electrical energy - lightning Nuclear energy - nuclear power plant
What planets produce lightning?
Saturn is the planet that produce lightning
What forms of photosynthesis can plants store their energy they produce?
Solar
Energy is the ability to produce what?
Energy is the ability to produce work or to cause a change in a system. It can take various forms such as kinetic, potential, thermal, or chemical energy.
Where does lightning form?
Lightning forms in clouds.
