Why should you wrap a woolen blanket around a burning object?
Fire requires three things: heat, fuel, and oxygen. If you take one of them away, then the fire will stop. By wrapping a heavy blanket around a burning object, it blocks oxygen in the air from getting to the fire and the fire goes out.
Can an object being heated be hotter than the source heating it?
Yes, the only way for that to work is if you have the right amount of oxygen, though. Blue fire can get hotter if it's heated by red fire and sand can be heated by lightning, causing it to turn to glass. Without the the right amount of oxygen, the object being heated will only get as hot as its source. Very rarely does the object get hotter than its source.
Does fire weigh anything?
Fire is the process of the rapid oxidation of combustible material. Since it is not an object, it has no weight. The objects that burn have weight and the ash from the burning has weight. In any given fire, the total weight of the fuel will be more than the total weight of the ash, because fire releases gasses and they disperse into the atmosphere and do not stay with the ash.
How does fire spread using conduction?
A fire in one part of a building can heat up some metal object that runs through a wall from the area of the fire to another location, as yet not affected by the fire. The fire in the first location makes the metal red hot and as metal is a good conductor, the heat travels along it, through the wall into the new area. If the metal in the new area is on contact with some combustible material this can then be set alight and the fire spreads.
Why does an object bend when you heat it?
When you heat an object, its molecules start to vibrate more vigorously. This increased thermal energy causes the atoms or molecules to move further apart, leading to expansion. As a result, the object will undergo thermal expansion, causing it to bend or deform if it is not uniformly heated.
