Answer: hence an electrical discharge occurs within the cloud and the ground when sufficient negative and positive charge gather inside the cloud and when the electric field become sufficiently strong. This produces bolt

The process of electric discharge during a thunderstorm is described as follows;
- The flow of electric charges from one body to another is known as electric discharge.
- During thunderstorms, air currents rise up, and water droplets fall down and this results in a separation of charges.
- In this separation, the positive charges gather at the upper edges of the clouds and negative charges at the lower edges.
- This is a thundercloud.
- When the charge accumulation becomes extremely large, air cannot resist the flow of charges anymore.
- Thus the positive and negative charges clash, producing light and sound.
- Thus electric discharge causes thunderstorms.
