A lightning arrestor typically covers the immediate vicinity around the structure it is installed on, such as a building or utility pole. The protection radius can vary depending on factors like the design of the lightning arrestor, the height of the structure, and the local environment, but a common range is around 30-50 meters.
It depends on the context. In some cases, fire can extinguish lightning by using up the oxygen in the surrounding area. However, in terms of raw power and speed, lightning is much faster and more destructive than fire.
Yes, the lightning rod is a technology designed to protect buildings and structures from being damaged by lightning strikes. It is not a manufacturing technology itself, but rather a safety technology used in construction to prevent lightning-related damage.
A small scale map covers a large area, but with less detail due to lack of space on the map. A large scale map covers a smaller area, but in much more detail. A small scale map may show the whole of the UK motorway system, and major roads. A large scale map may show the details of farms, villages, and physical features in great detail.
You can create a lightning effect in Cinema 4D using plugins like X-Particles or Turbulence FD to generate realistic lightning bolts. Alternatively, you can manually create a lightning bolt shape using the spline tools and animate it by adjusting parameters like branching, curvature, and glow effects to enhance the realism of the lightning. Experimenting with different textures and emission settings can also help achieve a more dynamic and visually striking result.
If you see lightning but don't hear thunder, it means the lightning is far away. The speed of light is much faster than the speed of sound, so you usually see lightning before you hear the associated thunder.
