Thunderstorms and Lightning

At any given point in the state of FLorida, the number can range from 60 to more than 100 per year. In the subtropical regions of the state, the number is about 60 per year, while the peninsula experiences 80 to 100 per year. A small area about 30 miles inland from the Gulf near Tampa experiences 100 to 130 per year.

the sun is the main source of energy for earth but indirectly as by solar energy the plants do photosynthesis which powers the planet earth . you may find detailed info in the book "eating the sun by oliver morton"

Call emergency services immediately for medical assistance. Ensure the safety of yourself and others in the area before approaching the victim. Provide basic first aid such as CPR if necessary until help arrives.

Thunder and lightning can create a sense of fear, awe, and excitement due to their power and unpredictability. They may also evoke feelings of anxiety and tension, as they can be associated with danger and stormy weather.

The metaphor "struck by a bolt of lightning" means being suddenly and unexpectedly affected by a powerful force or realization. It implies a sudden and intense impact that can be overwhelming or life-changing.

Being struck by a bolt of lightning means being hit by a discharge of electrical energy from a lightning bolt. This can cause serious injury or even death due to the high voltage and current involved. Lightning strikes can result in burns, cardiac arrest, and neurological damage.

Hail begins as a drop of water falling toward earth. In conditions that produce hail, rain clouds and such, there are areas were the wind blows downwrd and also upward producing very turbulent conditions. There is very cold air in the upper atmosphere. As a drop o rain(mostiure) falls, it is caught by updrafts of air and pushed high up into the very cold air and the outside of the mosture crytalizes into ice. This may occur a few or many times and the number of times the drop returnsto the upper atmosphere determines the size of the hail, for each time the drop travels upward more ice forms and the drop increases in size, until finally there is so much ice attached until gravity takes over and pulls the drop, which is now what we know as hail, down and out of the effect of updrafts and it falls to earth. In every piece of hail there is the minute drop of water that developed into he ball of ice we know as hail.

The Perfect Storm, a powerful nor'easter, occurred in late October 1991. It was a rare combination of a hurricane, a cold front, and a high-pressure system that created a massive storm in the North Atlantic Ocean.

A supercell thunderstorm is capable of producing a dangerous tornado. This type of severe thunderstorm is characterized by a rotating updraft, which can lead to the formation of a tornado under the right conditions. Supercells are known for their long-lasting and intense nature, making them a significant threat for producing tornadoes.

(At least in the musical adaptation) Joeseph Pulitzer made the newspaper price for the newsies 60 cents per hundred instead of 50. Thus, many woudn't be able to sell enough of them to get a profit. So they striked.

Yes, stationary fronts can be caused by thunderstorms. When a warm air mass and a cold air mass meet and neither air mass is strong enough to displace the other, a stationary front can form. Thunderstorms along the front can help to reinforce the stationary nature of the boundary by providing additional lift and instability.

You often hear thunder when you see lightning because lightning produces a sudden and rapid heating of the air around it, causing it to expand quickly. This rapid expansion creates a shock wave that we hear as thunder. The farther away you are from the lightning, the longer it takes for the sound to reach you.

Treated wood can typically last 20-30 years or more, depending on the type of treatment applied and the environmental conditions it's exposed to. Factors such as moisture, UV exposure, and insect damage can affect the longevity of treated wood. Regular maintenance can help prolong its lifespan.

D'Banj is from the state of Ogun in Nigeria.

Hurricanes and thunderstorms play a role in balancing Earth's temperature by transporting heat from the equator to the poles. They also help distribute water across different regions, contributing to the water cycle. While they can be destructive, they are natural processes that are important for maintaining the overall health of the planet.

Yes, roadrunners can see hail just like any other bird. Hail is a type of precipitation that falls from the sky, so roadrunners, with their keen eyesight, would be able to perceive it when it occurs.

A tornado is a storm that has very fast winds that form a funnel-shaped cloud. Tornadoes are characterized by rotating columns of air that extend from a thunderstorm to the ground, causing extreme damage in their path. It is important to take cover and seek shelter when a tornado warning is issued to stay safe.

Yes. Thunder is the sound of lighting hitting the ground. Light travels much faster than sound so you see the lighting first and hear the thunder afterwards. If you see the lighting and hear the thunder right after, then you are closer to wear the lighting struck.

Because light travels significantly faster than sound.

Speed of light (in vacuum) = 299 792 458 m/s

Speed of Sound (at sea-level ) = 340.29 m/s

Cycles per second [s-1], Hertz [Hz]or more commonly MegaHertz [MHz] .

2nd answer:

Technically, Hertz is the unit for electromagnetic frequencies, and cycles per second for everything else, like sound, ticks of a clock, and so on.

Also, I doubt that you will hear any sound in the MHz range as the range of sound that humans can hear runs from around 12Hz to 12,000 Hz.

3rd answer:

True but hearing was not mentioned in the question. Bats hear sounds with frequencies ranging from 20 Hz to 0.12 MHz. And dolphins hear from 0.001 MHz to 0.15 MHz. But the question didn't ask about audibility as related to dolphins, bats or humans - it asked for units. Units don't have numbers associated with them - scalars do.

The question as written wasn't about frequency hearing ranges. And it didn't say who was doing the hearing. If it had been, the person would have asked "what is the sound frequency range that humans hear?" Technically a unit does not have numbers to go with it. If someone were to ask "what are the standard units of the metric system?" and the 1st answer was "kilograms, meters, seconds." The second answer wouldn't be "100 kg, 2 m, and 1 s." Those quantities could be the scalar values for someone's mass, height, and the time it takes someone to think about an answer but those answers provide more than just units to a question that did not ask for a specific quantity.

So the 2nd answer answers the question "What is the range of frequencies that humans can hear?"

Yes, it is possible for a person who has been struck by lightning once to be struck again. If they are in an area susceptible to lightning strikes or they are exposed to similar conditions that increase the risk of being struck, there is a possibility of it happening again.
