Although a lightning bolt is only about an inch in diameter (2 to 3 centimeters), it can stretch for miles. While most lightning bolts are 2 to 3 miles (3.2 to 4.8 kilometers) long, theworld record flashwas observed to stretch 477.2 miles (768 kilometers) across three U.S. states —...
How do air currents act around lightning? Why do earthquakes often happen around the Ring of Fire? How do forest fires affect the geosphere? How are fuels such as coal and petroleum formed? Why do earthquakes often cause damaging fires?
最终，在风暴云团的底部，如果有很多的水分，就会形成一个巨大的云底，为之后的龙卷风提供能量，前提是如果真的到了这一步。When all these things are in place, a vortex can develop enclosed by the storm, and forming a wide, tall tube of spinning air that then gets pulled upwards.当所有这些东西都...
Almost at the exact moment as Ki-Jung’s soulful outburst, like a timed effect, LIGHTNING AND THUNDER strike outside the window. Followed by heavy rain. Ki-Tek looks out the window. KI-TEK (laughing) Did you see that! Right on cue! KI-WOO (imitating Ki-Jung) “Dad, we’re ...

As such, they are of obvious interest to the question of lightning initiation, but little has been known about them or how they are produced24,27. A number of short-duration discharges were observed by the LMA in nearby storms on 6 August. No high-power NBEs occurred in the storms. The...
LIGHTNING By: Aiden O’Connell. Lightning is formed when… Negative charges build their natural attraction to seek the ground for a positive charge, such. Lightning is the #1 storm killer in the U.S. Only 20% of those struck by lightning are killed. 70% survive, most with life-lon...
According to the solar nebula theory, the sun formed around 4.5 billion years ago from a massive cloud of gas and dust in space [source: NASA]. Imagine a huge cloud in space that shrinks and spins because of outside forces. This cloud becomes a flat, spinning disk, called a solar nebul...
(1)Each person's perceptions of others are formed by his or her own cultural conditioning,education,and personal experiences. (2)Sometimes perceptions differ because of what we choose to observe and how we deal with what've observed.It is not necessarily true that person perception is based on...
When lightning hits the sand, the temperature can reach twice the temperature of the surface of the sun. Over the last quarter of a century, Jockey’s Ridge has moved several hundred feet southwest, threatening to bury nearby houses and roads. Scientists and local people are studying it ...
