Lightning

What does polarized mean?

• Positive charge at one end, negative charge at the other

• Negative charge at both ends

• Positive charge at both ends

• I dont know

Where does lightning initiate?

• On the ground

• In the air

• In the clouds

Where are positive charges "stuck"

• All over the palce

• on the outside of an atom

• In the ground

• In the nucleus of an atom

what happens to the electrons on the ground?

• They go meet the clouds

• They get pushed away "repelled" by the negative charge in the clouds.

• They get closer and closer to the clouds until they explode

• By insulators

• By conductors

• By induction

• I don't know

What happens to all the objects on the ground during lightning?

• They become positively charged?

• They become negativley charged

• I don't know

• They become neutral

Where are the electrons in the cloud attracted to?

• All objects nearby

• Postive charge in the air

• the positively charged objects on the ground

• The negative charge on the ground
