A positive charge has a great attraction for a negative one. As the charges become greater, the attraction becomes stronger. A point finally is reached where the strain of being kept apart becomes too great for the charges. Whatever resistance holds them apart, such as air, glass or other insulating substances, is overcome or "broken down." A discharge takes place to relieve toe strain and make the two bodies electrically equal. This is What hannpn in lightning. A cloud containing countless drops of moisture may become op positely charged with respect to another cloud or the earth. When the electrical pressure between the two becomes great enough to break down the insulation of air between them, a lightning flash occurs. The lightning travels in a way that will get to the ether cloud, or the earth, as quickly and easily as possible. So the discharge follows the path that offers the least resistance. That's why lightning often zigzags. The ability of air to conduct electricity varies with its temperature, density and moisture. Dry air is a pretty good insulator, but very moist air is a fair conductor of electricity. That's why lightning often stops when the rain begins falling. The moist air forms a conductor along which a charge of electricity may travel quietly and un- TlI HUSMNP By ARKADY LEOEUM To understand lightning we have to know about electricity.
