Answer:
What is Lightning?
- Lightning is the occurrence of a natural electrical discharge of very short duration and high voltage between a cloud and the ground or within a cloud, accompanied by a bright flash and typically also thunder.
What is Electricity?
- Electricity is a form of energy resulting from the existence of charged particles (such as electrons or protons), either statically as an accumulation of charge or dynamically as a current.
What is a Flow of Electricity?
- A flow of electricity or an electric current is the flow of electrons through a wire or solution. In a solid the electrons are passed from one positively charged metallic atom to next but in solution the electron is carried by the ions present in the solution.
The Flow of Electricity Occurs Between a Cloud and the Ground?
- If the lower parts of a cloud work up an excess negative charge, the positive charge from the ground connects with the negative charge from the clouds and a spark of lightning strikes.
