    Thank you so much! Me being an aviation enthusiast quickly understood why the ends are pointy just after you gave the example of pointy ends in an aircraft. Thanks a lot again. Nice video

    Very nice video sir.
    Faraday's Cage, direction of lighting strike is more interesting part of the video.

  • @roythopputhalajoseph4390

    Positive ions in lightning conductor are immobile.They are static in there corresponding position.
    In fact the air molecules around the conductor are ionised and moved to neutralise the cloud

    Hi. 4:31 when the ion in the cloud gets neutralized, how does it push the electron on the lightning rod downwards?

    • @Vishnupriya-oj8rn
      @Vishnupriya-oj8rn Před rokem

      It's not after neutralizing. It's on the fraction of second between when that negative electron enters the rod and before merging with the proton due to attraction. At the time of its entry into the rod both the electrons repels eachothers and thus the another is pushed downwards....it's a series of affinity and replexivity thats just happening in a fractions of time

    Thanks for the video - I'm researching airplane jet/turbine and the seemingly lack of fuel it takes for planes to fly - based on the math alone it would take an extraordinary amount of fuel just at one airport and there is little to no evidence of this fuel - take off and landing would need fuel but it seems the planes generate their own energy while at 38,000 feet. Since there is 100 volts every 3 feet off the ground (equipotential lines) that gets us to 1,266,666 volts at 38k feet. It seems planes have the ability to harness this energy for propulsion and we are being kept in the dark of this free energy - any thoughts?

    Hello Sir, on your explanation , I have a confusion when you say positive charges move upward as positive stream , from my understanding positive charges((absence of an electron from the atom or positive ions) are nor free like negative charge electron , so how come they move upward ?

    In an area of lightning is extremely high and predictable, we want to use this energy in any way, do you think or suggest a way?

  • @frankthetank3342
    @frankthetank3342 Před rokem

    I've seen a false leader (if that's the way to say it). It looked like plasma traveling away from a house gutter about 6 feet from me, up into the sky, and at an exponentially increasing speed (like a rocket increases speed, but much faster). Then, a fraction of a second layer the sky lit up pretty far away. I assume another leader was used for the volt return path to ground, but just a guess. I recorded it with an old phone 11 years ago, so the quality was not great.

    Why is the electrons in the base of the cloud attracted to the point of the metal rod if the point is more packed with negative electrons?

    • @MakeMeScientific
      @MakeMeScientific  Před 4 lety

      Electrons in the pointed rod do not stay there they enter the earth creating vacancy for new electrons

    • @theundercoverguy
      @theundercoverguy Před 3 lety +1

      Opposite charges attract each other and similar charges repel each other just like the poles of magnet. The bottom of the cloud is negatively charged and it then attracts the positive charge in the copper rod towards itself and pushes the negative charge (same as that in the cloud) away to the earth. When the cloud comes over the building, it pushed negative charge away to the earth and attracts the positive charge towards itself. Since the tip is pointy, the + charge leaves the tip and neutralises parts of the cloud which reduces the risk of lightning.
      *Now you are asking:* Why is the electrons in the base of the cloud attracted to the point of the metal rod if the point is more packed with negative electrons?
      *Answer:* The metal rod is actually not filled with electrons! When the cloud comes, it pushes negative charge away and so the tip is packed with positive charge. I hope this helps!

    Thank you. But I've a doubt. I saw in another video that the positive charges accumulated in the lighting rod will ionise the surrounding atmosphere and the positive charges will be attracted to the cloud.. is that also true??

    Sir proton cannot move
    So how you have said that protons move in the cloud..
    But how it is possible as protons cannot move??

    • @MakeMeScientific
      @MakeMeScientific  Před 2 lety

      They're positive ions not protons. Due to high negative voltage positive ions move towards them

    Dear sir, You tried to explain good but I think you had said something totally wrong at part around 5:00
    Because the cloud may have infinite number of electrons but the copper plate can't have sufficient amount of proton's to neutralise such amount of electrons.
    Something is fishy over there😑🙂
    And also I had hit like button to make 0.5k like☺️😉💖

      Copper plate just serves the medium actually it passes all the electrons to earth at zero potential
