to do, if you have<a watch with
second hand.
Lightning can be seen on the in
stant of the flash. The sound OF
thunder, on the other hand, comes
to us at the rate of only one-fifth
of mile second.
If seconds pass between the
flash of lightning and the noise of
thunder. we can say that the light
ming is flashing about mile away.
If 10 seconds pass, the flash is 2
miles away. A space of Is seconds
means that the distance is miles.
There are times when We hear
rolling thunder" and this gives
another angle on the time taken
for sound to reach us. Let us sup
pose that flash mile long strikes
straight down from a cloud to the
earth, in an area of level ground.
In that case, the sound of thunder
coming from the part Of the flash
near the ground comes to Us first.
The thunder from the highest point
Of the flash comes to us last. All
along the path of the flash there
are points from which the sound
reaches our ears. This gives us roll
ing thunder which may go on for
several seconds,
