the further the angle down the faster it will burn, but the wax of the furthest down one drips on the flame so it goes out. But it is still the fastest

What is the symbolism of lighted candle in js?

There is a lot of symbolism in candle lighting for any event including the JS Prom. One idea is that the lights can always be lit and will burn for a long time symbolizing hope and love.


What is a true bearing?

A true bearing is a type of bearing that indicates the direction of one point relative to another point on the Earth's surface, measured using true north as a reference point. It is expressed as an angle, measured in degrees, between a fixed reference direction (such as true north) and the direction of the point being observed. True bearings are important for navigation, surveying, and other applications that require accurate direction-finding. They differ from magnetic bearings, which are measured relative to the Earth's magnetic field, and are subject to variation depending on the location and time. True bearings are more reliable and consistent, as they are based on the Earth's axis of rotation and do not change over time or location.


What is the formula for the angular velocity?

There are several, what is it that you want to calculate? The "natural" units for angular velocity are radians/second. The relationship between linear velocity and angular velocity is especially simple in this case: linear velocity (at the edge) = angular velocity x radius.

How do you solve an equation that uses spherical trigonometry without a calculator?

Before calculators, trig functions in general were evaluated using a slide rule (fast, but accurate to only 2-3 significant digits, and interpolation tables, which required interpolating between values in a printed table of function values to get up to 3-4 significant digits. Tricks were a big part of the repertoire - for example for small angles of less than about 7 degrees, sin and tangent are equal to the angle in radians. Spherical geometry was fairly labor intensive, to say the least, since several trig functions are used for even simple distance and angle calculations. Special tables were printed for common cases, such as plotting great circle distances and bearings for terrestrial navigation. In a desert island setting, given infinite time and desire, trig functions can be calculated using various converging series, with the Taylor series being a commonly taught (though slow!) example.

How does the size of the jar affect the burning time of a candle?

The Smaller the jar the less oxygen, the bigger the jar the more oxygen, and since the candle lives of oxygen the biggest jar with the candle in it will take the longest to burn.

How can you change the burning time of a candle?

It can be changes by changing the size or the thickness of the candle, or changing the nature of the wax.


Why did the candle stop burning after some time?

You do not give us the conditions when the candle stops burning, but a guess would be that the candle is in a closed container. When the candle has used up the oxygen inside the closed container, it can no longer burn, and goes out.


Is a wick necesarry in a burning candle?

Yes that is what burns the melting wax prolongs the burning time by slowly evaporating

How will the size of a closed jar affect the burning time of a candle?

Because, if there is a candle in a closed jar it will almost immediately go out. This is because fires cannot be lit without oxygen, and with a closed jar, no oxygen can come in. The fire eats up all of the oxygen, causing it to go out if not quickly exposed to oxygen.


Does the thickness of a candle affect the burn time of a candle?

Yes, thicker candles have more wax to burn and therefor take longer to burn out.
