Not very far. The charge the lightning carries is disbursed in a short distance in water, and a shorter distance still in salt water. A few meters is about all that is required for the current density to drop to some small value. A few tens of meters maximum.
They can travel as far as they want to, provided they have food and water available.
Well I travel to the water pitcher in my house, so its about 60-80ft
There are more things for the light waves to bounce off of in water, so light can not travel in a straight line or as far.
it travels from the water pipes
it travels from the water pipes
lighting travels at the speed of light
density is high
Not far enough if you get hit
"Too far to travel for you"
Fluorescent lighting is cooler and far more energy-efficient than incandescent lighting.
Yes, you would likely survive because water is a good conductor of electricity and the current from the lightning would disperse in the water. However, it is important to get out of the water as soon as possible to avoid any potential dangers from subsequent strikes or nearby electric currents.
Do eels travel Far
