What causes the electric current that result in lightning?
Lightning is caused by a buildup of electrical charge in clouds. When the charge difference between the clouds and the ground becomes large enough, a lightning bolt is discharged to balance the charge. This sudden flow of electricity forms the lightning seen in the sky.
What is the homophones for an electric flash from clouds make lighter?
lightning, lightening
What color are clouds and what causes them to appear in different shades?
Clouds are typically white or gray in color. The color of clouds can vary based on factors such as the angle of sunlight, the thickness of the cloud, and the presence of pollutants or particles in the atmosphere.
What is the homophone an electric flash from clouds?
The homophone for an electric flash from clouds is "lightning."
How does static electricity build up in clouds?
Lightning
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.
What causes thunder after a lightning strike?
The electricity in the clouds.
How does electricity zap clouds to create lightning?
Electricity zaps clouds to create lightning when the buildup of negative and positive charges in the clouds causes a sudden discharge of electricity, creating a visible bolt of lightning.
Does lightning always make contact with the ground?
No, lightning does not always make contact with the ground. It can also occur within clouds or between clouds without touching the ground.
What is the Hebrew translation of clouds and lightning?
Clouds = ananim (×¢× × ×™×) Lightning = barak (ברק) Clouds and lightning = ananim uvarak (×¢× × ×™× וברק)
What causes the electric current that result in lightning?
Lightning is caused by a buildup of electrical charge in clouds. When the charge difference between the clouds and the ground becomes large enough, a lightning bolt is discharged to balance the charge. This sudden flow of electricity forms the lightning seen in the sky.
Why does thundering occur with out lighting?
Thunder is caused by the rapid expansion and contraction of air surrounding a lightning bolt. While thunder is typically associated with lightning, it is possible to hear thunder without seeing the associated lightning if the lightning is occurring far away or behind clouds. This phenomenon is known as "heat lightning."
What causes rain to fall from the sky without the presence of clouds?
Rain falls from the sky without clouds when water droplets in the air combine and become heavy enough to fall as precipitation. This can happen in clear skies due to processes like evaporation, condensation, and cooling of the air.
Where does lightning form?
Lightning forms in clouds.
Does Mercury have lightning?
Yes, Mercury has been found to have lightning, which is believed to be caused by intense convective activity in its thin atmosphere. Observations from the MESSENGER spacecraft have detected the presence of lightning bolts on Mercury.
Do all clouds cause lightning?
No, clouds out of a blue sky would not affect lightning or lack of it
Does lightning start from the ground or from the clouds?
Lightning typically starts from the clouds and travels towards the ground.
