Why does kindling burn faster than the log from which they came?
Twigs burn faster than logs because the heat of the fire can wrap around the twigs quicker. Fires won't be able to penetrate through logs as quick because they are deeper.
Why does a solid wooden log burn more slowly than an equal mass of sawdust?
Because the solid log has less surface area.
What is the log of 14?
You should use a calculator for a question like this. It is quicker and simpler. Log(14) = 1.15
Why is Answers.com site so slow?
If you resister and log in, it will be quicker.
How would you log on to review test scores?
You would log on to review test scores by visiting the official testing website. This allows results to be viewed much quicker than those which must be sent through the mail.
Why does a log of wood take longer time to start burning than wood shavings?
Smaller surface area, Wood shavings are generally drier than a log of wood, because of the general density of the wood itself. Wood shavings are in turn, easier to burn because of the small amount of moisture in them, therefore, they burn faster, and easier.
When you burn a log has a physical change occurred?
Yes, carbon from the log combines with the air to form co2.
How do you calculate a log with 9 diameter and 10' length?
You do not calculate a log!You can calculate the surface area or the volume or, if you know the species, the mass or even time for which it would burn in a hearth. But the log, itself, is not something you can calculate.You do not calculate a log!You can calculate the surface area or the volume or, if you know the species, the mass or even time for which it would burn in a hearth.

Why do wood splinter burn faster than the log it came from?
Wood splinters burn faster than the log they come from primarily due to their smaller size and increased surface area relative to their volume. This allows them to ignite more easily and allows oxygen to reach more of the wood at once, facilitating combustion. Additionally, splinters often have less moisture content compared to larger logs, further enhancing their burn rate.
Can you burn willow in a log burner fireplace?
Yes, of coarse you can!
Why a log of wood does not burn by a matchstick while paper does burn?
Wood has a higher ignition temperature than paper, so it requires more heat to start burning. The density and moisture content of wood also make it harder to light with a matchstick compared to the lighter and more flammable paper. Additionally, wood contains more structural components such as lignin that can impede the combustion process.
When you burn a log in the fireplace why is there a difference in mass?
The chemical composition of a log (and most organic substances) is carbon. Carbon when burned becomes oxides of carbon which are usually gases i.e. carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide. Therefore in essence, most of your log is being vaporized. If you were to burn the log in an enclosure such that none of the gases were lost, you would observe no mass difference.
