∙ 14y agoLightning is nothing but the flow of charges. We know that our earth's potential is taken to be zero. When number of clouds come together, potential difference comes in existences between earth and clouds. Charges move from high p.d.[potential difference] to low Pd So, charges try to reach ground. There is also humid medium of air and rain through which charges flow..

What is the difference between a thunderstorm and lightning?
Lightning is light energy, or electromagnetic energy. And thunder is sound energy.
A lightning bolt occurs when billions of protons are transferred at the same time?
yes!
What is transferred by global winds?
Thermal energy is transferred by global winds.
How is heat energy transferred by earth atmosphere?
heat energy transferred by earths atmosphere by the sun
Does lighting strike cell towers?
A cell tower can receive multiple lightning strikes in just one year, but due to the construction, the energy received from the lightning bolt is transferred to the soil at the base of the tower. Cell towers, like any tall metallic object, is a beacon to lightning and the higher the tower is in height, the more susceptible it is to receive the strike.
When lightning strikes is energy transferred to the air?
no. Air is just a medium for energy transfer. - ANIMESH SINGH GAUTAM
What energy source is transferred from a hotter object to cooler one?
This question is misguided. It is the energy type that is transferred, not the source. The type is heat.
What type of energy was transferred when the substance was cooling?
heat energy
What type of energy is transferred by a wind turbine?
electrical energy
What type of energy was the electrical energy transferred to by the immersion of water?
kinetic
A type of energy transferred by a wave in a medium is kinetic energy?
True
Is The type of energy transferred by a wave in a medium is kinetic energy?
yes
The type of energy transferred by a wave in a medium is kinetic energy.?
True
Which type of energy is transferred due to a temperature difference?
heat
What type of energy is transferred by vibrational wave?
energy is transmitted by different waves
What form of energy is lighting?
Light is a type of energy known as radiant energy.
What type of energy transformation occurs when a light bulb is on?
Electrical energy is transferred into light energy, however if the light bulb is an older one, some energy will also be transferred into heat loss.
