Answer / srinivasa rao talasila
It is a high magnitude pulse in micro seconds discharge.
so many mega volts of supply will discharge in 10 power -6
seconds.

Answer / tarun aggarwal ymca(tarun.agga
Lightning is an atmospheric electrostatic discharge (spark),SO Initially It is DC with an extremely fast rise time which gives it a high frequency AC component at the initial strike. Once the arc is established it contains all frequencies in the RF spectrum which makes it AC.

Answer / k.prakashchandra
It is a discharge between the oppositely charged and hence
can be considered as DC pulse as the 'only AC' appliances
burn out due to even small voltages caused by lightning
strokes and incandescent lamp remains unaffected.
Is This Answer Correct ? | 6 Yes | 3 No |
Answer / koti
it is purely pulse with a time period in seconds
by using high voltage engineering methods we can use this
power
Is This Answer Correct ? | 0 Yes | 0 No |
Answer / sanjay rawat
all of u says that it is a pulse of high magnitude for micro sec
so this pulse is a spike
so we can concidered as ac

Electricty is generated at around 16kV, then step up to 220kV for transmission then steped down to power transformers then DTs and then through the LT n/w it reaches the consumer end. At the consumer end 230V supply is required. So, why is electricity not generated directly at 230V and transmitted?
