The temperature of fire can be judged by the colour of the flames if the fuel source is known. For carbon substances, it increases from red to orange to white. Another method, is to use various substances with a high melting point and measure the time required for the end inserted into a flame to begin to melt. A third method is to use a pyrometer, a type of high temperature thermometer, that measures thermal radiation.

If i have the initial and after temperature how would i be able to find the change in temperature?

You can find the change in temperature by subtracting the initial temperature from the final temperature. For example, if the initial temperature is 20 degrees Celsius and the final temperature is 30 degrees Celsius, the change in temperature would be 10 degrees Celsius (30 - 20 = 10).


What happens if you spill liquid nitrogen over fire?

Spilling liquid nitrogen over fire would likely extinguish the fire due to the extremely cold temperature of the nitrogen (-320°F). The rapid evaporation of the liquid nitrogen would displace oxygen, which is essential for combustion, effectively smothering the flames.
