The last question is for my homework the other two not.
I watched a video about it "Quarks und Co Blitze". A electron with ebough energy can ionize an atom. The free electron ionize another atom and so on. The heat of this process is what we see (the thunder). Thats how I understood...
Hey,
Theory: The voltage of a thundercloud is too low to ionize air particles and to produce a thunder.
Particles of cosmic radiation are the trigger.
I calculated whether the voltage of a thundercloud is enough to ionize air particles but the voltage was always to low. So I wanted to know...
