Why does kindling make it easier to start a fire?
Kindling is small, lightweight pieces of wood that ignite quickly due to their size and dryness. By using kindling to start a fire, you provide a source of easily combustible material that can quickly raise the temperature of the fire and ignite larger pieces of wood or fuel. This helps to establish a stable flame and build up the heat needed to sustain a fire.
Why can you hold your fingers beside the candle flame without being harmful but not above the flame?
Beside the flame the heat you experience is that heat being radiated as light - if you hold your finger too close or leave it too long, you will get harmed! Beside the flame the air is cool as cool air is being sucked into the flame. However above the flame the hot gases produced by the combustion of the wax in the flame are rising upward by convection. These hot gasses will heat you skin by conduction and you will be burned very quickly.
Does flame cutting use a neutral flame or slightly oxidizing flame?
Assuming that you are using the Oxygen-Acetylene cutting process; both, depending at what stage/phase of the cutting process you are in. What we encounter is a gas flow differential problem. With the cutting torch flame properly adjusted (the acetylene valve opened to the point where the un-mixed acetylene flame is burning without producing any smoke but still in contact with the cutting tip of the torch, the oxygen valve is slowly opened until you have adjusted the flame to a neutral quality or setting. Press the cutting oxygen lever; typically the flame will become slightly carburizing ("feathers" will appear at the ends of the pre-heat flames) this phenomonom occurs because of the drop in line pressure due to the high flow of oxygen through the cutting tube or orifice. With the oxygen lever remaining depressed, readjust the flame to a neutral setting. This will cause the flame to become slightly oxidizing when the cutting lever is released; since an oxidizing flame burns slightly hotter than a neutral flame the pre-heat of the metal that is being cut is faster. When the metal is at the proper pre-heat or kindling temperature (1600 F for pure iron - various steel alloys will be slightly different; beginning to turn bright red is a good indicator) depress the cutting oxygen lever, the flame will revert to "neutral" and the cut can then begin. Weld. Prof.
What is the luminosity of a flame?
The luminosity of a flame is the amount of visible light it emits. It varies depending on factors such as the type of fuel being burned, the temperature of the flame, and the presence of impurities. Flames with higher luminosity appear brighter.
How do you get firewood to burn if it is still green?
To burn green firewood, you can dry it out by splitting it into smaller pieces and exposing it to sunlight and airflow for several weeks. Storing it in a well-ventilated area off the ground will also help it season faster. Additionally, mixing it with dry kindling and seasoned wood can improve combustion. Using a hot, strong flame can help ignite the moisture-laden wood more effectively.
Is bull pine firewood good?
Yes, Bull Pine firewood is definitely good. It produces a long lasting flame. However, it is quite expensive to purchase.
Why do gas ovens have the flame at the bottom?
Heat from the flame rises. The stuff below the flame would not be heated. The flame draws combustion air from beneath, by convection. Anything below the flame gets cooled. It's why one puts the kindling paper and wood shavings below the fireplace logs.
How do relighting candles work and what makes them able to reignite after being blown out?
Relighting candles work by using a special chemical coating on the wick that can reignite after being blown out. This coating allows the candle to continue burning even after the flame has been extinguished.
Why welders use welding torch instead of flame of firewood?
An oxy-acetylene welding torch is used for welding rather than a flame from firewood because it is possible to concentrate the energy and heat at one small precise location, to move it readily, to generate a lot of heat in one small area, to control the amount of heat precisely, and to control the amount of oxygen in the flame and therefore the oxidation occurring at the weld.
Why welders use welding torch not the flame of firewood in welding?
Welding involves melting metal. Wood flames don't get hot enough.
If Charmander's tail gets blown out does it die?
Charmander does die if it's flame goes out.

Why does a candle extinguish when a fan is blown at it?
The fast moving air blown at the candle reduces the heat available, which removes an essential element of the fire triangle, causing the flame to extinguish.
What yellow flame indicate in flame test?
A yellow flame in a flame test usually indicates the presence of sodium in the sample being tested. Sodium typically produces a bright yellow flame when heated.
Can matches relight after you have blown them out?
No, matches cannot relight after being blown out. When you blow out a match, you are extinguishing the flame by removing the heat source necessary for combustion. The match head has already undergone a chemical reaction to produce the flame, so relighting it without a new heat source is not possible.
