Question

How does lighting occurs on earth?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Lightning is an electrical discharge caused by imbalances between storm clouds and the ground, or within the clouds themselves. Most lightning occurs within the clouds. ... This heat causes surrounding air to rapidly expand and vibrate, which creates the pealing thunder we hear a short time after seeing a lightning flash.

Answer 2

Answer:

• (Main answer) Lightning occurs on earth when the negative charges (electrons) in the bottom of the cloud are attracted to the positive charges (protons) in the ground.
