To solve the problem of finding the change in energy of the charge transferred by a lightning discharge, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the given values - Current (I) = \(5.0 \times 10^{4}\) A - Time (t) = 1.4 ms = \(1.4 \times 10^{-3}\) s - Potential difference (V) = \(2.4 \times 10^{9}\) V ### Step 2: Calculate the charge (Q) transferred ...
