Yes - the internal combustion engine works on just that principle - as do all those gasoline explosions in action movies.

Can balsa wood float on liquid mercury?

no, because mercury can be able to burn things, so when wood goes into liquid mercury, it would most likely melt or "crash and burn."answ2. The above is not correct. Balsa wood would float easily on the surface of mercury. Mercury is a toxic and dangerous material, but it does not of itself provoke combustion.


Is it safe to put hot liquid in a Nutribullet?

No, it is not safe to put hot liquid in a Nutribullet as it can cause pressure to build up and potentially lead to the lid popping off or the contents spilling out, posing a burn risk. It is recommended to let hot liquids cool down before blending them in a Nutribullet.


How do wicks work in candles and other flame-based products?

Wicks in candles and flame-based products work by absorbing the liquid wax and drawing it up to the flame. The heat from the flame vaporizes the liquid wax, which then burns and produces light and heat. The wick acts as a fuel delivery system, ensuring a steady and consistent burn.


What are solid rockets?

The correct term is "solid propellant rocket". These are rockets that burn fuel that is not a liquid(or they are NOT liquid fuel rockets). These rockets have a fuel that is poured into the rocket case and turns to a solid. Once ignited, there is no stopping the burn or controlling it.A simple example of this is rocket you shoot on the 4th of July. It burns black powder that has been formed into a cardboard case.Whereas, a liquid fuel rocket can be controlled by varying the amount of fuel that is injected into the rocket motor.


Can cottonballs absorb heat?

Cotton balls do not absorb heat; instead, they absorb moisture or liquid. When placed near a heat source, such as a flame, they may burn due to their flammable nature rather than absorbing heat.

Why atomizing air required in burner?

Even though fuel oil is classified as a flammable liquid, most fuels will not burn easily in a liquid state. If you were to drop a lit match in a container of fuel oil, it would PROBABLY go out almost immediately (don't try this!). In order for fuel oil to burn, it must first be transformed from a liquid to a vaporized state ~ atomized. Atomization increases the exposure of the fuel to the oxygen in the air; this promotes combustion.


What is atomized liquid?

Atomized liquid refers to the process of breaking a liquid into very small droplets or particles through atomization. Atomization can be achieved through various methods such as spraying, nebulizing, or using specialized equipment like atomizers. This process is commonly used in industries such as pharmaceuticals, agriculture, and combustion for applications like spraying pesticides, creating inhalable medications, or improving fuel-air mixing.

Rather than being atomized in the injectors, it's atomized beforehand. Everything after that functions more the same as a regular gas engine.
