The best example of plasma on earth is lightning. It's natural. The state of matter we call plasma exists at high temperatures. Those temperatures don't usually exist here, but they do for a brief second in a bolt of lightning.
Any electric arc creates plasma, and plasma metal cutting equipment can be found is shops around the world. The plasma is so hot that it zips through sheets and plates very quickly. This sustained plasma stream makes short work of cutting applications. We can also find plasma inside operating fluorescent lights. The gas atoms are not superheated, but have high enough energy at the low pressures to become a plasma.

What is a physical form that a substance can exist?
Solid, liquid, gas, or plasma. A substance can occur in any one these states. All matter occurs in one of these 4 states. These are the 4 states of matter.
Use states of matter in a sentence?
Among the four known states of matter, plasma is the least found on the Earth's crust.
Why is plasma found in stars but rarely on earth?
Throughout the Universe, plasma is the most common form of matter, making up over 99% of the visible Universe. The Sun and all the stars are plasma, as is the interplanetary medium (space between the planets), the interstellar medium (space between the stars), and intergalactic medium (space between the galaxies). On Earth, plasma is found in the aurora, the ionosphere, in fire, and lightning, and at the Earth's core. For more information, see: http://www.plasma-universe.com/
Example of plasma?
Plasma is even on earth. Examples are the northern lights, lightning,and core,or magma. Plasma is also in neon light tubes like for advertising. Just to add plasma is also in stars, the sun, and black holes.
What are the five elements in science?
I believe it is Water, Earth, Fire, Air, and Plasma.
What states of matter do water exist in on earth?
lidid or plasma
What is needed for plasma to exist and where can it be found?
the sun is a major one, like all stars, it contains lots and lots of plasma. but the only naturally occurring plasma on Earth is lightning. it is used in fluorescent lights as well, but this is not naturally occurring plasma.
A bolt of lightning exist in what phase?
Plasma
Where is plasma found on earth?
No natural plasma on the earth.
Where is earth plasma found?
No natural plasma on the earth.
Where does plasma occur on the earth?
where plasma occur on the earth
In what conditions will plasma exist?
The conditions in the sun's core that allows the plasma state to exist hydrogen nuclei.
Where plasma came from?
plasma is one state of a chemical element that is pure (only one atom) it is made when the chemical element gets a certain temperature. that is so high temperature that it do not exist in the nature on Earth but in the sun and in some facilities on earth.
How does natural plasma exist?
Natural plasma exist only at very high temperatures, or low temperature vacuums.
How does matter exist in fire?
Plasma
Why is plasma not naturally found on earth?
because earth does not have the energy to produce plasma
Why is plasma important to the universe?
because if plasma didn't exist we wouldn't! The sun and all stars are made of plasma :-)
