Can water be used to extinguish a MacBook Pro battery?

No! NEVER put water on a Mac. If by extinguish you mean cool it down, just wait like 15 minutes and it should be fine. But if you mean a burning battery, then you would use a fire extinguisher that is rated for electrical and chemical fires.

ABC fire extinguishers extinguish fire by cooling it down.?

No, the ABC extinguisher uses a dry powder chemical composition that by its application displace the oxygen required to maintain the ignition process. additionally, since it disperses a fine dense cloud of powder, it coats the intended surface with its compound. This action extinguish the class A and B fires, however, this media does not provide any retardancy to the subject fire. additionally, class C is not meant to be a type of fire, instead is defines the cause of the fire, i.e., cause by an electrical energized charge that will require a non conductive medial that passed the 100,000 v generated by the test to qualify for a class C rating.

A fire extinguisher cools down or extinguishes a fire. There are five types of fire extinguishers used in the US.


Should a fire extinguisher be directed at the top or base of the flames?

At the base. Most fire extinguishers are designed to cool the fire, which is the chemical reaction occurring at the surface of the flammable materials, at the base of the flames. The risk of directing any fire stream or extinguisher at the top of the flames is that the higher heat at that height may waste all the cooling power of the extinguisher before it can have any effect upon the flaming materials. For example, some sprinkler systems are unable to extinguish a hot fire beneath them unless they are activated before the air temperature reaches the boiling point of water. A few specialized extinguishers are intended to smother the fire by settling down upon the flaming materials, and may be safely sprayed or released above the flames.


On What common principle do all fire extinguishers work?

Depends of the type of fire extinguisher. Common CO2-extinguishers are filled with with compressed CO2. Once released it cooles down the fire below it's burning- or ignition-temperature and replaces the Air. The lack of oxigens will then suffocate the fire. No matter what type of extinguisher, it's always about cooling of suffocating the flame.
