Question

How is the lighting produced in the clouds?

Answer 1

When heavy clouds filled with water collid together a spark occurs which is actually known by lightening . During condensation, the clouds are formed with stactic electric charge positive or negative. When they crash together this charge is discharged in form of lightninig , but actually it is an electric charge

Answer 2

Due to the heat of the sun, the warm air and water vapour rise up and cold air from the above comes down. The cold air mixes with the hot air. Then, due to Friction, the electrons of air gets transferred to Water molecules .

Due to condensation, the clouds are formed. which are charged with static electric charges may be positive or negative. when two clouds of positive and negative static charge, approach each other, the bad conductor air becomes a good conductor of electricity. A large quantity of electric charge flows rapidly from one cloud to the other through the air. An intense spark of electricity is seen in the sky.

such rapid flow of charge through the air between the two oppositely charged clouds is called electric discharge or lightning.

The lightning produces heat due to which air expands. This sudden and rapid expansion of air produces loud sound, which is heard as thunder.
