How do firefighter use science?

Answer 1

All materials used by firefighters to extinguish the fires are chemical products.

Answer 2

Fire is a chemical reaction. The current training is what is called the fire tetrahedron, which is the elements required to produce fire. These are: Heat, Oxygen, Fuel, and Chemical Chain Reaction. Remove any one of these elements, and the fire goes out. Chemistry is a part of how we attack a fire. Boiling point, vapor density, ignition, flammability limits, combustion, conduction, convection, radiation, flash point, thermal balance.....ect. Chemistry, chemistry, chemistry. It goes into the types of extinguishing agents we use, the type of attack we make on a fire, what areas we evacuate, our priorities on a scene, and whether we are able to even put out certain fires. This knowledge base is important to being a good firefighter. We don't just put the wet stuff on the red stuff, theres more to it than that.

Answer 4

how does a fire fighter use science in their work

Answer 5

They use the fire triangle. Which is heat oxygen, and fuel.

Answer 6

compessing for pushing the water out o the hose and fire extinguishes have chemicals

Answer 7

Science is used by firefighters, because when the firefighters put out the fire they have a chemical change. This happens because they stop whatevers on fire from burning.
