why we are not taking the current from lightining and thunder?

Question

send me the details about y we r not storing the current for future use

Answer 1

coz we're scared of lightning!!

Answer 2

First off there is no electricity in thunder. Thunder is the sounds produced by the rapidly exploding air molecules during a lightning strike.

To answer the rest of your question you couldn't store the current as current,or amperage (amps), is the unit of measurement used to describe the amount "push" electricity has while it is flowing.

The voltage of a lightning strike actually has been attempted to be stored in large storage units called capacitors. I think the experiment has been deemed unfeasible as lightning is highly unpredictable as to where and when it is going to strike. Note that lightning has been artificially induced to strike in a controlled setting but the methods used to get lightning to strike are crude and not very predictable as well. Lightning is also very hot (as much as the surface of the sun) and the transmission methods has a hard time holding up.

I hope this helps answer your question!

Answer 3

for one thing, it's too unreliable. The chances of a thunderstorm happening in any given area on any given day are pretty low. Also, lightning is wholly unsuitable as an energy source since it's both too brief and way, way too much power for a manageably-sized transformer to handle. Normal household electricity is 110 volts at 15 amps. An average lightning bolt is several hundred million volts and would fry most electrical equipment.

Answer 4

It's far too powerful of an electric current. Why do you think the lightning rod *grounded* the current rather than *store* it.
P.S. Think about Benjamin Franklin's kite

Answer 5

Current cannot be stored. Current is simply the movement of electrons. You cannot store a movement for later use.
