Is it easy to obtain energy from a candle?
Its easy only if you use candle baptism oil or if you have the tredishanal one you could just pour it on then its fire so its a yes if you have any of them
How does electricity come from candle?
I can think of three ways whereby a candle could produce electricity: 1). Heat water with the flame. When the water boils, use the steam to spin a turbine mounted to an electrical generator. 2). Place the flame close by a photovoltaic cell, which can convert a part of the candle's heat and light to electrical energy. 3). Place a pinwheel behind the candle flame, attached to an electrical generator, and wait for someone to come along and blow out the flame.
Give two examples of where renewable energy resources could be used instead of fossil fuels?
Does a candle has more energy or less energy?
The wax in a candle can be thought of as having energy locked up in the chemical bonds which can be made available for use by lighting the candle. In that way it is "potential energy". In a strict sense, however, potential energy for a candle would be restricted to how far you could drop it in a graviational field. In standard physics, the equation for potential energy P is: P=mgh where m is mass, g is the acceleration of gravity, and h is the height of the object (how far you can drop it).
Does heat describe how hot or cold something is?
The term heat can refer to something being hot or cold. If an object is hot, you could say that it has a lot of heat, and if it is cold, you could say that it has very little heat. However it should be noted that heat and temperature are not quite the same thing. A bathful of lukewarm water contains far more heat, or thermal energy, than a lit candle. Though the candle has a higher temperature.
How could you check that mass of the candle change during burning?
Put the candle on a technical balance.
What is possible explanation as to why the candle went out?
The candle could go out if there is a strong draught of air, or if all the oxygen is used up by a candle burning in a sealed container.
If you place a can of cola or a box of apple juice in front of a burning candle which one can put out the candle?
Could you rephrase this? It is hard to tell exactly what the question is.
When a santisma muerte candle turn black from burning does this mean it is working sometimes it just burn clear?
The color of a Santisima Muerte candle doesn't necessarily indicate whether it's working or not. It can vary depending on how the candle was made, the ingredients, and the environment where it's burning. Focus on the intention behind your candle work and trust the process, regardless of the color of the candle as it burns.
If the gases released by a burning candle could be contained and measured would you see that their mass is the same as the candle's was before it was lit and what law does this example describe?
This experiment is a verification of the law of the conservation of matter. And yes, the mass of all the combustion products would be equal to the mass of the candle and the oxygen it consumed while burning.
What experiment could you do to prove that oxygen is needed for burnig?
simply cover a burning candle with a glass to cut off the air, then the candle will burn out
Does area affect a candels burning rate?
The area of a candle itself would not normally affect the burning rate of the candle, but the area and transport rate of the candle wick could affect these properties. When in use, mot candles burn at the upper end of their wicks, to which the liquefied material of the candle is transported through its wick to bring the liquefied material into optimal contact with oxygen from the air. If a wick is extra large and/or transports the liquefied substance of the candle with more speed than average, the candle would burn faster.
Why do colored candle burn faster than white?
Probable it is the influence of impurities but the difference is minimal.
Is the sentence correct - The boy could blew the candle?
The boy blew out the candle.
How do you put out a candle without smoke?
you could get it wet but it will ruin the candle or you could use honey put a little dab on the candle and it will go out the next time you lite it the honey will burn off you could get it wet but it will ruin the candle or you could use honey put a little dab on the candle and it will go out the next time you lite it the honey will burn off
What type of candle burns for the longest time?
Well it depends where to fire is situated, how big the fire is, at what pace is it burning whatever is on fire, and how long you can manage to keep it going. But technically it can keep going forever. The chances of that happening are extreamly slim ,and i doubt can really be done.
If sky candle is a kenning for the sun is then night sky candle might be a kenning for the moon?
a dead candle could be a kenning for the moon. seeing as a lit candle is sun.
