When a storm is formed, the storm clouds contain negative charges and the ground is filled with positive charges. Similar to the way magnets work the two are attracted. The the collision of the two charges produce an electrical discharge.

I hope this helped!

Lightning is an electrical dis.charge caused by imbalances between storm clouds and the ground, or within the clouds themselves. Most lightning occurs within the clouds. This heat causes surrounding air to rapidly expand and vibrate, which creates the pealing thunder we hear a short time after seeing a lightning flash.

<h2>Value of g on the distant planet is 16 m/s²</h2>

Explanation:

We have equation of motion v² = u² + 2as

Here initial velocity, u = 2 m/s

Final velocity, v = 10 m/s

Displacement, s = 3 m

We need to find acceleration, a.

Substituting

v² = u² + 2as

10² = 2² + 2 x a x 3

6a = 96

a = 16 m/s²

Value of g on the distant planet is 16 m/s²
