Count the seconds between when the lightning flashes and the sound of the thunder. Divide the number of seconds that pass by five to get the distance in miles or by eight to get the number of kilometers. Note that this only gives you the distance to the bolt of lightning. The storm cell itself is probably at least a few miles across.

What is the difference between a thunder cell and a supercell?

A supercell is a kind of thunderstorm cell. A thunderstorm cell consists of a convective unit with its own updraft and downdraft. A supercell is the most powerful type of storm cell with a strong, rotating updraft and distinct updraft and downdraft regions.


What is single cell thunder storm?

A single cell thunderstorm, sometimes called a pulse storm, is the weakest and most common of the four main classes of thunderstorm. A single cell thunderstorm consists of an individual convective cell with its own updraft. Such a storm remains separate from nearby storms and usually lasts less than an hour. Single cell storms can occasionally produce brief periods of severe weather but rarely do. The other main classes of thunderstorms are multicell clusters, squall lines, and supercells.


Does a spectrophotometer measure total cell count or viable cell count?

A spectrophotometer measures the optical density of a sample, which can be used to estimate total cell count in a sample. It does not distinguish between viable and non-viable cells, as both contribute to the absorption of light. To determine viable cell count, additional methods such as colony-forming unit assays or flow cytometry are typically used.

What type of anthrax raises cell count?

Inhalation anthrax, also known as pulmonary anthrax, is the type of anthrax that can cause a significant increase in the white blood cell count, specifically affecting the number of neutrophils. This increase in cell count is part of the body's immune response to the anthrax infection.

How would you calculate the speed at which a thunderstrom cell is moving?

To calculate the speed at which a thunderstorm cell is moving, you can track its movement over time using radar or satellite imagery. By determining the cell's position at different time intervals, you can calculate its speed by dividing the distance it traveled by the time it took to do so. Another method is to use wind data at different altitudes to estimate the movement of the cell.

Is a snow storm a storm cell?

No, a snow storm is not a storm cell. A snow storm is a weather event characterized by heavy snowfall and strong winds, while a storm cell refers to a small, intense cluster of thunderstorms within a larger storm system. The two are different in terms of the type of weather they produce and their characteristics.

How were men counted on Alcatraz?

Probably by a head count when mustered in the prison yard. Or a head count by warders going from cell to cell. Bearing in mind how dangerous some of the prisoners were in Alcatraz, I suspect the count was done cell to cell.
