Can anyone explain thunder to me?

Question

i just wanna know how thunder works, how it can shake a house and make such a loud noise.

Answer 1

Hot and cold molecules mix.

Answer 2

The sound of thunder is air rushing back into the gaps made in it by the lightening. It is so fast and powerful it thunders. Lightening actually goes from ground to skiy not sky to ground (the lightening bolts)

Answer 3

The deep rumbling and sharp cracks of thunder are produced as the air around the lightning bolt is super heated—up to 60,000 degrees Fahrenheit (33,315 C)—and rapidly expands. As the air cools and contracts, it creates a shock wave which manifests itself as thunder.

Answer 4

Answer 5

Thunder occurs when Positive particles and Negative particles combine.

Answer 6

Hello!!

Thunder? Thunder is a result of the warm and cold air mixing together, it may be accompanied by lightning during thunderstorms. It is also a result when the warm air is replaced by cold air and is mixed together.

Answer 7

When 2 clouds collide it make a very loud noise loud enough to shake anything like the sub whoffer in a sound system

Answer 8

Thunder is the sound of lightning. Lightning is so powerful with the electricity, when it cuts throught the air it rumbles. The molecules in the air are shaking your house.

Your house wont fall or anything. lol

Answer 9

it has to do with positive and negetive particles. the lightning is when a positive particle jumps down to a negative particle. it causes a flash of light. then it booms. i dont know what makes it do it but a loud sounf can make a hous shake by how fast the sound waves are traveling. the louder the sound the faster the waves. hopes this answers your question! :)
