Answer 2

Answer:

Explanation:

Lightning is caused by electricity moving in between clouds or between the clouds and the ground. The electricity is formed when ice and water particles move around rapidly inside the clouds. The heat of the lightning causes thunder. As the hot electrical charge passes through the air, it heats up the air.

It happens completely inside the cloud, jumping between different charge regions in the cloud.Thunder is caused by lightning. When a lightning bolt travels from the cloud to the ground it actually opens up a little hole in the air, called a channel. Once then light is gone the air collapses back in and creates a sound wave that we hear as thunder.

When the positive and negative charges grow large enough, a giant spark - lightning - occurs between the two charges within the cloud. This is like a static electricity sparks you see, but much bigger. Most lightning happens inside a cloud, but sometimes it happens between the cloud and the ground.
