Why water estinguishes fire?
Water extinguishes fire by cooling the burning material below its ignition temperature. It also helps to smother the fire by forming a barrier between the fuel and the oxygen in the air. Additionally, water can absorb heat and evaporate, which helps to remove energy from the fire.
How does the cold water help to put the fire?
Cold water helps to put out a fire by reducing the temperature of the fuel source below its ignition point, thereby extinguishing the flames. It also helps to create steam which displaces oxygen and suffocates the fire.
Recommendations for dealing with bushfires in the future to minimise loss of life and property?
what about fire breaks around towns, you know big area of nuthingness, then the fire would kill itself, or convert huge planes e.g 747 or An-225 or even a-380 to fire fighter planes, fill them with water or stuff and then dump it on fire hope this helps

What are the 3 ways to extinguish a fire?
First you need to look at the fire triangle. In the fire triangle (consisting of heat, fuel, air) the firefighter removes one of the sides of the triangle, thus extinguishing the fire. There is also the fire tetrahedron which has the addition of a chemical chain reaction. The most common way to put out a fire is with water. This cools the fire and then also helps to remove the air with the expansion of the water into steam. Some departments use a wetting agent, or foam, added to the water. This helps to remove the fuel and air from the equation. Lastly, depending on the fire, a chemical is used that helps to disrupt the amount of air the fire has to burn and smothers it. This could be a dry chemical from and extinguisher or even a gas from a CO2 extinguisher.
Why would it be unwise to put out a gas fire with water?
Putting out a gas fire with water can actually spread the fire, as water can cause the gas to disperse and ignite in a larger area. This can lead to a more dangerous situation and increase the risk of injury or property damage. It is best to use appropriate extinguishing agents for gas fires, such as a dry chemical fire extinguisher.
Is fire in a fireplace a physical or chemical property?
Fire is not a physical or chemical property. Fire is not a property. Fire is a chemical reaction where oxygen combines with some or all of the chemical components of the fuel, emitting light and heat.
How much property was destroyed by fire in 2000?
