CocoaOla: You guys may be right but don't forget that there may be cases of exceptions in that Law of Physics. In actuality, lightning flows around the outside of a car, and the majority of the current flows from the car's metal cage into the ground below. In essence, a car acts like a mobile Faraday cage. However, not all vehicles are created equal anymore. Convertibles do not have metal roofs, which compromises the Faraday cage effect. In addition, some vehicles are manufactured out of non-metal parts, which impedes electricity's ability to flow through the car. Another caveat with regards to lightning safety within vehicles is the fact that some portions of the current can flow through the vehicle's electrical systems and metal appendages including radios, cell phone chargers, GPS units as well as car door handles, foot pedals, the steering column and the steering wheel. Don't forget that there could also be different levels of strike. Low Energy Strike...has no effect on the car. The energy dissipates through the body of the car. Medium Energy Strike.... There may be a little more damage on the car or scratch and hole. High Energy Strike This can cause the car to explode or set car on fire 3 Likes 1 Share |

LegoMetahuman:.many people here can't even differiantiate the two when Google even dey....what you see is the lightning and what you hear is the thunder....very simple |
Re: Lightening Destroys Lady's Car In Abuja This Morning by mvem(m): 4:29pm On Jun 25, 2019 |
lexy2014:are you guyz really serious...many people don't know the difference ...thunder is just the noise from the lightening ...they are not separate . you are even making them look different. Charges in the air causes the lightening (the light you see), the sound it produces is called thunder |
Re: Lightening Destroys Lady's Car In Abuja This Morning by mvem(m): 4:31pm On Jun 25, 2019 |
lexy2014:they are thesame ...lightening is what you see, the sound it produces is called thunder |

This has nothing to do with lightening. One should be safe in a car if lightening struck. Was the car just all metal parts and were there no tyres? This story get as e be. I sure say na Nollywood director come up with this kind story. If you are in doubt, then read the below or just google the topic Rubber tires aren't why you're safe in a car during a lightning storm. ... You're safe in a car because the lightning will travel around the surface of the vehicle and then go to ground. This occurs because the vehicle acts like a Faraday cage. |

Re: Lightening Destroys Lady's Car In Abuja This Morning by lexy2014: 4:55pm On Jun 25, 2019 |
mvem: We aren't discussing about gun. But d fact that u even asked that question has tilted d argument in my favour. U say they are one& d same thing. One of d charactistics of lightening is that it is harmful. Is thunder therefore harmful? |

2RUTHHURTS:all electrical in cars have Earth or ground wirings. So what then do you call those ground wires attached to bare metal frames on the body? Earth wire. Meaning the car is grounded/earthed. |
