Is a lightning bolt hotter than the sun?

Yes, lightning is 5 times hotter than the surface of the sun. Lightning can reach temperatures of 30,000 degree Kelvins(53,540 degree fahrenheit) whereas the surface of the sun has temperature of 6000 degree Kelvins(10,340 degree Fahrenheit.

But we are only talking about the surface of the sun which is it's coolest layer. Digging into the core of the sun, you will find temperatures of 15 Million Kelvins(nearly 27 Million Fahrenheits). Lightning is actually a movement of charges which does not have a temperature. But the resistance of the movements of such large amount of charges causes the surrounding to heat up. 

Studies show that good conductors of heat do not heat up as much as poor conductors of heat. Air, which is a really poor conductor of electricity reaches temperatures of about 50,000 Fahrenheits when lightning passes through it.

What is the fastest Internet speed ever recorded?

By
In May, 2020, researchers in Australia claim to have achieved internet speed of 44.2 Terabits per second, the fastest internet speed ever recorded. This unbelievable speed was achieved with the help of a single optical chip called micro-comb that replaces around 80 lasers found in some of the existing telecom hardware. The micro-comb is really tiny, about the size of a fingernail.  At this lightning speed, you can download over 1000 HD (High Definition) movies in less than a second.  Continue reading to know who is/are considered the father of internet? Who performed this test? The lightning speed was achieved by a team of researchers from the Swinburne, Monash and RMIT universities of Australia.  Where did the test took place? The device was planted and tested outside the laboratory with the help of using some existing infrastructure similar to that used by the National Broadband Network(NBN) of the country and is compatible with current NBN's infrastruct...

डॉक्टर अकबर अली, एक मसीहा ऐसा भी
