What kind of energy does clouds that produce lightning have?
Clouds that produce lightning have electrical energy. This energy is generated by the separation of positive and negative charges within a cloud, which results in the discharge of lightning as a way to balance these charges.
How is lightning created involving protons?
Lightning is created when positive charges (protons) in the clouds interact with negative charges on the ground, creating an electric field. When the electric field becomes strong enough, it causes a rapid discharge of electricity in the form of lightning. This discharge equalizes the charges between the clouds and the ground.
What kind of electricity is lightning an example?
Lightning is an example of static electricity
Is fire and lightning the same?
No. Fire is a combination of chemical and physical changes in which substances interact to release heat, light, smoke and ash. Lightning occurs when the negative charges (electrons) in the bottom of the cloud are attracted to the positive charges (protons) in the ground. In some instances, fire can be created by lightning.
What does lightning results from?
The lightning happens because of the pressure of the clouds and it the lightning comes out from the clouds naturally.... (lightning are dangerous so don't try to go up and see if it is right or wrong
How does the principle of opposite charges attracting help to produce lightning?
Positively charged particles in a storm cloud float near the top, while negatively charged particles stay near the bottom. If the negatively charged particles clump up too much, they 'jump' somewhere else, to help spread out again. This results in lightning from the attracted particles.
Lightning forms when?
Lightning happens when the negative charges (electrons) in the bottom of the cloud are attracted to the positive charges (protons) in the ground.
How is lightning is foarmed?
When positive charges go to negative charges in a cloud
How does lightning form from the ground up?
Lightning forms when positive and negative charges build up in a cloud. The negative charges at the bottom of the cloud attract positive charges on the ground, creating a path for lightning to strike from the ground up.
How does lightning form and strike the ground?
Lightning forms when positive and negative charges in a cloud separate and create an electric field. When the electric field becomes strong enough, it causes a sudden discharge of electricity in the form of lightning. Lightning strikes the ground when the negative charges in the cloud are attracted to the positive charges on the ground, creating a path for the lightning bolt to travel.
Which interaction of nature binds atoms and molecules by attracting unlike charges and repulsing like charges?
Electrostatic force, also known as electrostatic interaction, binds atoms and molecules by attracting unlike charges (opposite charges) and repulsing like charges (similar charges). This force is a fundamental component of interactions such as ionic bonding and van der Waals forces.
Is lightning caused by electric charges in clouds?
Yes. Although the development of these charges is still mostly understood, the buildup of opposite charges in the clouds can create a discharge (lightning) between the cloud and the ground, or the cloud and another cloud. Sometimes the distribution of charges can be seen in a dendritic (forked) pattern of lightning bolts. (see related link)
Which of these will different charges do?
Positive charges attract negative charges and repel other positive charges. Negative charges do the opposite, attracting positive charges and repelling other negative charges. Like charges repel and opposite charges attract.
What occurs when positive and negative electrical charges build up in the cloud?
Lightning
What kind of energy does clouds that produce lightning have?
Clouds that produce lightning have electrical energy. This energy is generated by the separation of positive and negative charges within a cloud, which results in the discharge of lightning as a way to balance these charges.
Why is there so much lightning during thunderstorms?
Lightning occurs during thunderstorms because of the buildup of electrical charges in the atmosphere. When these charges become strong enough, they are released as a bolt of lightning, which heats the air and creates the sound we hear as thunder.
When two particles with opposite charges are drawing together its said they are?
Attracting each other.
