what is lightning?what are its causes?​
please answer

Answer 1

Answer:

Lightning is a giant spark of electricity in the atmosphere between clouds, the air, or the ground. ... Lightning can occur between opposite charges within the thunderstorm cloud (intra-cloud lightning) or between opposite charges in the cloud and on the ground (cloud-to-ground lightning).

Lightning is an electric current. Within a thundercloud way up in the sky, many small bits of ice (frozen raindrops) bump into each other as they move around in the air. All of those collisions create an electric charge. ... Since opposites attract, that causes a positive charge to build up on the ground beneath the cloud.

Answer 2

As the sun heats the earth's surface, the air above it warms up, too. Warm air rises. As the air rises, very tiny droplets of water, or vapor, rise up and form into a cloud. ... Lightning can happen within a cloud or it can happen between the cloud and the ground. It all depends on how these charges are jumping around.
