What happens when there is lightning but no thunder?
Thunder is the sound caused by lightning, there is always thunder with lightning. If you cannot hear thunder maybe that is because you are too far away from the storm.
What type of force makes lightning and thunder?
Lightning is caused by the buildup of negative and positive charges in clouds, resulting in an electrical discharge between them. Thunder is the sound produced by the rapid expansion of air due to the intense heat generated by a lightning bolt.
What is thunder caused by in thunderstorms?
rain
Why is thunder associated by lightning?
Lightning heats up the air and the heated expanding air causes the thunder sound. You can estimate how far away the lightening was by counting seconds after the flash, 6 seconds to a mile away.thunder is the sound of lightning after the lightning strike occurs

Explain what causes lightning and thunder?
Lightning is caused by the buildup of electric charges in a storm cloud. When the charge difference becomes strong enough, it discharges as a lightning bolt. Thunder is the sound produced by the rapid expansion and heating of air surrounding the lightning bolt.

Does thunder cause lightning or does lightning cause thunder. Explain?
Lightning causes thunder. Lightning is a massive electrical discharge that you see as a bolt or flash of light. Thunder is the sound caused when the lightning superheats the air, creating a shockwave.
What makes thunder ad lightning?
Thunder is caused by the rapid expansion of air surrounding a lightning bolt due to extreme heat. Lightning occurs when electrical charges build up in clouds and between clouds and the ground, creating a discharge of energy in the form of an electric spark.

What causes continuous lightning without thunder?
Continuous lightning without thunder can be caused by a phenomenon called "heat lightning," which occurs when distant lightning flashes are too far away for the sound of thunder to be heard.
Is there thunder in a tornado?
Not in the tornado itself. However, tornadoes occur during thunderstorms, so they are usually accompanied by thunder.
What causes the phenomenon of lightning in clouds without the accompanying sound of thunder?
Lightning in clouds without the sound of thunder is often caused by heat lightning. This type of lightning occurs when a storm is far away and the sound of thunder cannot travel as far as the light from the lightning.
Is thunder part of nature?
Thunder is not matter. It does not have mass and does not occupy space.Thunder is sound made up of vibrations caused by lightning, and lightning is a huge discharge of electricity.Thunder is not matter.
