During a particular thunderstorm, the electric potential difference between a cloud and the ground is Vcloud?

During a particular thunderstorm, the electric potential difference between a cloud and the ground is Vcloud - Vground = 5.00E8 V, with the cloud being at the higher potential. What is the change in an electron's electric potential energy when the electron moves from the ground to the cloud? in J?During a particular thunderstorm, the electric potential difference between a cloud and the ground is Vcloud?
1 joule = 6.24150636309 脳10^18 eV



the electron increases in energy by 5.00*10^8 electron volts.



5.00*10^8 eV / 6.24*10^18 eV/Joule = 8.01*10^-11 joules
