I believe lightning is usually caused by the negative and positive neutrons and protons causing an electric shock this is also similar to static electricity, but in a more extream way :)

Why do tornadoes have lightning in them?

Lightning occurs within tornadoes due to intense convective forces and the separation of electrical charges within the storm. As air rises rapidly inside the tornado, friction between particles can create and build up static electricity, leading to lightning discharges.


What happens when air uplifts rapidly causing electrical charges to form?

When air uplifts rapidly, friction occurs between air particles, leading to the separation of positive and negative charges. This creates electrical charges, which can result in lightning strikes or thunderstorms. The buildup of electrical charges may discharge as lightning bolts, illuminating the sky and producing thunder.


What causes abnormally low body temperatures?

Continued exposure to low or rapidly falling temperatures.


Why do you hear tunder sound after lightning explain?

You hear thunder after seeing lightning because lightning produces intense heat that causes the air to rapidly expand and create a shock wave. This shock wave is what we hear as thunder. The distance between you and the lightning strike can affect the time gap between seeing the lightning and hearing the thunder.


Why does lightning come first?

Lightning comes first cause there is a discrepancy between areas of air between regions of warm and cold and this causes frictionals forces to build up,which sometimes create an electrical spark which is lightning.


What happens when rapidly falling cold air meets rapidly rising hot air?

A tornado forms


Is thunder the sound lightning bolts make i really need help?

Thunder is the sound created by lightning. The sound is generated by rapidly expanding gas near the electric arc of a lightning bolt.

What weather change is most likely indicated by rapidly falling air pressure?

A rapidly falling air pressure is often associated with the approach of a storm or low-pressure system, which can bring changes in weather such as strong winds, heavy rain or snow, and rapidly dropping temperatures.
