What else can I help you with?
Does flash of lightning require or release energy?
Both.
When lightning strikes is energy transferred to the air?
Yes, when lightning strikes, it heats up the surrounding air so rapidly that the air expands quickly, creating a shock wave that we hear as thunder. This transfer of energy from the lightning bolt to the air is what causes the thunder sound that we hear after seeing a lightning strike.
Does lightning contain salt?
No, lightning does not contain salt. Lightning is a massive discharge of electricity caused by the buildup and release of electrical energy in the atmosphere, typically between clouds or between a cloud and the ground. Salt is not a component of lightning.
What characteristic of explosive action?
Explosive action typically involves sudden and intense movements or force. It is characterized by rapid acceleration, high energy output, and a quick release of force.
What is the strongest explosive?
The strongest explosive known is Octanitrocubane, which is a type of high-energy density material that can release a significant amount of energy upon detonation. It is more powerful than traditional explosives like TNT or RDX.
Can lightning striking a tree knock it down?
Yes, lightning striking a tree can knock it down if the strike is powerful enough to cause significant damage to the tree's structure. The intense heat from the lightning can also vaporize water inside the tree, leading to an explosive release of energy that can split or topple the tree.
Does flash of lightning require or release energy?
Both.
A dynamite explosion converts chemical energy to?
Mechanical energy (Blast waves) and thermal energy (Heat)
Is the element einsteinium explosive?
Einsteinium is a radioactive element and is not inherently explosive. However, it can release energy in the form of radiation as it decays, but it is not known to exhibit explosive properties.
Is thunder an example of electrical energy?
No, thunder is a result of lightning lightning on the other hand is an example of electrical energy, it is called static discharge,or static energy... Thunder is usually classified as sound energy, i.e. a pressure disturbance travelling through the air. The atmospheric electrical discharge that we call "lightning" causes sudden heating of the air, which causes its sudden expansion, which is what produces the pressure disturbance.
does thunder causes lighting?
Yes, the energy of the lightning is converted to Heat. The heated air around the lightning expands explosively, and creates the sound waves that you hear as Thunder.
How was the lightning invented?
Lightning was not invented; it is a natural phenomenon that occurs when electrically charged particles in the atmosphere are discharged. Lightning is a result of the build-up and release of electrical energy in thunderstorms.
When lightning strikes is energy transferred to the air?
Yes, when lightning strikes, it heats up the surrounding air so rapidly that the air expands quickly, creating a shock wave that we hear as thunder. This transfer of energy from the lightning bolt to the air is what causes the thunder sound that we hear after seeing a lightning strike.

What characteristic of explosive action?
Explosive action typically involves sudden and intense movements or force. It is characterized by rapid acceleration, high energy output, and a quick release of force.
What is the difference between a thunderstorm and lightning?
A thunderstorm is a weather system characterized by thunder, lightning, heavy rain, and strong winds. Lightning, on the other hand, is a sudden electrostatic discharge produced during a thunderstorm, resulting in a visible flash of light and a loud cracking or rumbling noise. Thunder is the sound produced by lightning as it heats the air and causes it to rapidly expand.
What is the energy conversion of firecracker?
A firecracker converts chemical energy stored in its explosive compounds into thermal energy and light energy through a rapid combustion reaction. This process generates a sudden release of energy in the form of heat and light, resulting in the explosive effect of the firecracker.
