@Awolflover1 can you check i think it's b too ;)

OpenStudy (emmanuel77m):

Potential energy is a nice way to understand the reason that lightning happens. During a thunder-storm, the bottoms of clouds tend to become negatively charged, which causes the ground (where we live) to become positively charged. In the language or electricity we say that there is a potential difference between the clouds and the ground, which just means that the positive charges on the ground (and the negative charges on the cloud bottoms) have lots of potential energy.

alones (alones):

Oh okay maybe heat?
