Construction grade steel burns at 2795 degrees Fahrenheit. Jet fuel does not burn this hot. Its maximum temperature is 1472 degrees Fahrenheit.

∙ 9y agoJet fuel burns at around 800-1500 degrees Fahrenheit, which is not hot enough to melt steel. However, it can weaken steel structures by causing them to lose their structural integrity and strength.
Yes, a metal spoon can melt with sufficient heat. The melting point varies depending on the type of metal, but most common metals used in spoons such as stainless steel or aluminum have melting points high enough that they will not melt under normal cooking conditions.
No, wooden logs cannot melt because they are made up of cellulose fibers and other organic materials that do not have a melting point like metals or plastics. Instead, wood will burn when exposed to high enough temperatures.
Fabrics that are high in synthetic fibers, such as polyester, nylon, and spandex, are more likely to melt in the microwave. Natural fibers like cotton and wool are generally safe to microwave. Always check the fabric care label before putting any fabric in the microwave.
No, a flashlight does not generate enough heat to melt ice. In order to melt ice, you need a heat source that is significantly hotter than the freezing point of water, such as a flame or hot water.
It is called a nuclear meltdown when fuel rods in a nuclear power plant generate so much heat that they start to melt. This can lead to the release of radioactive material and poses a serious threat to both human health and the environment.
It can heat it enough to weaken it, but it won't melt it.
No. Lava is generally not hot enough to melt steel.
It doesn't dissolve steel beams, but jet fuel can under some conditions burn hot enough to at least soften steel beams, which can cause them to collapse if they're under load.The open air burning temperature of jet fuel A or A1 (the most common types of commercial jet fuels in the US) is about 2000 degrees Fahrenheit or less; most steels melt at about 2500 Fahrenheit, so if you just lay a beam on a puddle of burning fuel it's unlikely to melt. However, that much heat will cause the steel beams to expand, and if they're bolted together that will disrupt the stability of a structure... in addition to the softening (structural steel loses about 50% of its strength at as low as 1100 degrees, and over 1800 degrees the figure is closer to 90%).Also, in a forced air draft jet fuel burns considerably hotter than it does if it's just sitting there in still air. Under optimal conditions ... such as those found in a jet engine ... jet fuel may burn at closer to 4000 degrees.
No, some burn or decompose before they get hot enough to melt.
No, a forge is not hot enough to actually melt steel. However it is hot enough to make steel pliable .
no it will just melt
which are the chemicals that melt stones, give that chemicals name
No you need heat to melt cheese, tomatoes do not possess enough heat unless you burn them.
Plenty of metals have high enough melting points that they would not melt in lava.
The aluminium foil will probably melt.
Depends on the metal, but for steel it is hot enough to melt the steel- and steel melts at 2600-2800 degrees F.
There is no inherent property of steel that causes it to melt ice. Ice will melt if it comes in contact with something that is warm enough to melt it, regardless of what it is made of. One possible advantage that steel has is that, like any metal, it is a good conductor of heat. This would allow it to transfer heat more quickly than a nonmetallic substance.
