How to avoid being struck by lightning?

1. Don't stick your head and hands out of the window when you ride, in case of lightning.

2. In thunderstorm weather, don't stand under the light bulb or take a shower.

3. Don't shelter from rain and lightning under the big tree, and stay at least 5 meters away from the big tree.

Don't connect the wires for drying clothes and bedding to windows and doors.

5, thunderstorm days, try not to open the door and open the window to prevent lightning from hitting the room directly.

6. When lightning strikes, don't get close to all power facilities, such as high-voltage line transformers.

7. Don't turn on the TV and VCD player during thunderstorm and lightning, and unplug all power plugs to avoid personal injury and damage to electrical appliances.

8. Don't make a phone call or answer the phone during a thunderstorm and lightning, and turn off your cell phone. Because the electromagnetic waves of telephone lines and mobile phones will introduce lightning to hurt people.

9. In case of thunderstorm and lightning, try not to go out. If you have to go out, you'd better wear rubber shoes and a raincoat to insulate electricity.

The principle of lightning formation.

Maybe everyone has the impression that the more clouds there are, the easier it is to have lightning. This is because there are many liquid water bodies and solid ice crystals in the cloud, which actually contain a lot of charged particles. So the more charged particles behind the cloud, the greater the probability of lightning.

When the water drops in the cloud begin to fall, friction and electrification will occur, and free electrons will begin to increase. When they converge to a certain extent, the positive and negative electrons will separate, and the lightning we see is actually the interaction between the positive and negative electrons. At that time, the whole cloud was like an angry Thor, trying to vent all the thunder and lightning. At this time, the ground became the main target of its venting. The earth is like a big conductor, constantly attracting lightning to the ground.
