Please mark me as brainliest please.

Answer 2

• Lightning is an electrical discharge that occurs when there is an imbalance between storm clouds and the earth, or inside the clouds themselves.
• The bulk of lightning strikes occur in clouds.
• This heat causes the surrounding air to expand and vibrate rapidly, resulting in the pealing thunder we hear after watching a lightning flash.
• Colliding rain, ice, or snow particles inside storm clouds enhance the imbalance between storm clouds and the ground during a storm, and typically negatively charge the lowest levels of storm clouds.
• Positively charged objects on the ground, such as steeples, trees, and even the Earth itself, create an imbalance that nature attempts to correct by flowing current between the two charges.
• Lightning is incredibly hot, and a single flash may raise the temperature of the air surrounding it to five times that of the sun's surface.
