How much voltage is produced in thunder?

Thunder does not involve voltage, thunder is a sound wave produced by the explosive expansion of air heated by the current flow in a lightning bolt. This current flow is several million amperes!A lightning bolt is produced when the voltage between a cloud and ground or between two clouds is high enough to trigger an ionization cascade in the air between them. This voltage is several million volts!The total power dissipated in each lightning bolt is several million million watts or several trillion watts!


What does thunder look like?

Thunder itself cannot be seen, as it is the sound created by the rapid expansion of air surrounding a lightning bolt. However, lightning that causes thunder can be seen as a bright flash of light in the sky.


What characteristic of a lightning discharge causes thunder?

When a lightning discharge occurs, the air is heated greatly by the amount of voltage that discharged through the air (approx 100 million volts). The air expands and explodes at the speed of sound, creating thunder.


How much is thunder's voltage?

Since thunder is composed of sound waves, it doesn't have a voltage; it has a frequency (pitch), and an intensity (loudness) measured in decibels.The voltage of the lightning bolt itself is proportionate to its length; by current estimates, the longest and most powerful bolts can max out at over 120 million volts.Positive (ground-to-cloud) lightning strikes, while rarer, can be up to 10 times more powerful than the usual negative (cloud-to-ground) strikes. This is because the earth, being a far larger mass than any thundercloud, is capable of collecting a greater electrical charge in one place before discharging it upward.


Do plants like thunder and lightning?

It depends on the tornado. Low plants such as grasses stand the best chance, but in a strong enough tornado, even the grass can be torn from the ground. Trees are often uprooted or snapped, but even a tree with a snapped trunk can recover. In a weak tornado some trees may escape with broken limbs.
