If it gets into the power supply that is charging it, yes. The power surge from a lightning bolt can easily damage or even destroy an electronic device such as an iPhone.
The odds of a lightning strike do not necessarily increase after an initial strike. Each lightning strike is an independent event, and the odds of the next strike are determined by various factors such as weather conditions and geographical location. While lightning can be more likely during certain weather patterns, there is no direct correlation between subsequent strikes based on a previous one.
No they mostly strike the US but lightning strikes everywhere
When lightning and thunder occur simultaneously, it is known as a lightning strike. Lightning is the electrical discharge seen in the sky, while thunder is the sound produced by the rapid expansion and contraction of air around the lightning bolt.
The surface of the Sun (photosphere) is hotter than the air in the vicinity of a lightning strike. The temperature of the photosphere can reach about 5,500 degrees Celsius, while the air around a lightning strike can reach temperatures around 30,000 degrees Celsius.
Thunder i guess but lightning make a sound of thunder so it would probably be both!
Yes, lightning can strike while a rainbow is present. Rainbows occur during or after a rain shower, which can also be associated with thunderstorms that produce lightning. Seeing both a rainbow and lightning at the same time is rare but possible.

No one cares

Lot's of "strikes" could damage a computer. An airstrike, striking it with a hammer, angry laborers could destroy it while striking, etc... If you are referring to a test question, it probably means a "lightning strike."

It does come up, & it only take no more than 5 seconds for this to happen.
Lightning strikes land more frequently than water. While about 71% of the Earth's surface is covered by water, only about 5% of lightning strikes occur over oceans. This is primarily because thunderstorms, which produce lightning, are more likely to develop over land due to the presence of heat and rising air. However, when lightning does strike water, it can be dangerous, as the electrical current can spread out over the surface.
Sheet lightning and Heat lightning are very similar, if not the same. They form the same way, but might strike different. For instance, sheet lightning looks more like a sheet in the sky, (strange eh? :D) and doesn't normally strike down into the ground, and when you have heat lightning, you see differently. But mostly, they form the same way. =D good luck!
ANSWER 1Well i was watching lately a documentary on Discovery channel, they were talking about strange facts, describing on a reconstruction how some people defeated death amazingly. By coincidence there have been a man living in the US, he was strucked by lightning for four times, each time on different circumstances and now he's still alive luckily but unfortunately he suffers now from some pains increasing exponentially by the number of times a lightening stuck him. He mentioned that it may be related to heredity because his grandfather aunt and a cousin (as i remember) were strucked also by this huge enormous phenomenous of goddess nature.ANSWER 2When it comes to being a human lightning rod Roy C. Sullivan is the iron clad holder of the title. Roy C. Sullivan was a U.S. forest ranger in Shenandoah National Park in Virginia and it seemed that having an electric personality prerequisite for his job. Lightning strike #1 came in 1942 in a fire lookout tower. Lightning strike #2 came in 1969when he was in his truck. Lightning strike #3 came in 1970 in his front yard. Lightning strike #4 came in 1972 in a ranger station. Lightning strike #5 came on August 7, 1973 while he was in his car. Lightning strike #6 came on June 5, 1974 in a campground. Lightning strike #7 came on June 25, 1977 while fishing.
