Yes. It can (and does) travel in the form of lightning. Static electricity that zaps us when we touch something grounded on a very dry day is the same thing, only on a smaller scale. Electricity would rather not travel through air, but when charges build and the difference of potential gets high enough, that electrostatic potential will ionize air and the charge will jump from one place to another following the ionized trail and further ionizing the air.

How far can beta particle travel through air?
Beta particles can travel up to a few meters in air before they lose energy and are absorbed. The distance they can travel depends on the energy of the particle, with higher energy beta particles able to travel further.
Do sound waves travel best through air?
Surprisingly no. Air is a gas which means that the molecules are far apart. Even a liquid is better that air for sound to travel through because the molecules are closer together. But, a solid is the best for a sound to travel through. This is because the molecules are very close together so the vibration is transferred much quicker though the material.
How far does beta radiation travel through the air?
Beta radiation can travel several feet in the air, but its range is limited. The distance it travels depends on the energy of the beta particles and the density of the material it's traveling through. Beta radiation can be stopped by materials such as aluminum or even a few millimeters of plastic.
How far can a 3kHz travel?
A 3kHz sound wave can travel a considerable distance, potentially several kilometers in air and even further in water. The distance it can travel depends on factors such as the medium it is traveling through, environmental conditions, and the strength of the sound source.
How far does electricity travel in water and what factors influence its conductivity?
Electricity can travel about 100 meters in water, but this distance can vary depending on factors like the concentration of ions in the water, temperature, and pressure. These factors influence the conductivity of water, which determines how well it can conduct electricity.
How far does sound travel through the air?
990
How far can alpha particles travel through air?
Just a few inches.
How far can electricity travel through air at different voltages?
20KV can throw a spark about a centimeter long in dry air. the distance at other voltages is directly proportional to the voltage. you should be able to calculate the distances for other voltages yourself from this info.
How far will sound travel through air in 1 seconds?
Approximately... 1108 feet. Depending on several factors.
How far does sound travel through air if unimpeded by objects in the environment?
The sound of a volcano that exploded in Indonesia in the 19th century traveled around the world. How far sound will travel depends on how loud it is.
How far can beta particle travel through air?
Beta particles can travel up to a few meters in air before they lose energy and are absorbed. The distance they can travel depends on the energy of the particle, with higher energy beta particles able to travel further.
How far does alpha travel in air?
About 10cm.
How far will beta travel?
That depends on the energy of the beta particles and the medium they are passing through. In air beta can travel several inches to several feet. Beta cannot pass through a single layer of aluminum foil.
How far can air pollution travel?
Iv'e heard it can travel over 50 miles depending on how much pollution there is in the air.
How do sound waves travel though the air?
far away
Do sound waves travel best through air?

How is science involved with drag racing?
Aerodynamics. Friction. Weather forecasting, as far as humidity, and air density. How air passes through a motor. Flame travel in the combustion chamber. Correct air/fuel misture.....
