Question

the benefits of having a good conducting path to ground to divert the lightning current far outweigh any possible slight increase in the probability of a lightning strike near a protected object.
true
false

Explanation:

A good conducting path to ground (like in lightning protection systems) safely diverts lightning current, preventing damage. The slight increase in strike probability near the protected object is negligible compared to the protection benefits. So the statement is true.

Answer:

True
