Fire in space can occur without oxygen because it doesn't need air to burn. In space, fire can happen due to the presence of fuel and heat, even in the absence of oxygen.
No, you do not explode in space. In the vacuum of space, there is no air pressure to cause your body to explode. However, without a spacesuit, you would not be able to breathe and would eventually lose consciousness and die due to lack of oxygen.
It will go out. Fire needs oxygen, and a vacuum has none.
what about Fire ? It occupies in a space, right ? Does it have mass? I think the plasma state materials.
No, water itself cannot catch on fire because it is a compound made of hydrogen and oxygen. However, the hydrogen in water can catch on fire if it is separated from the oxygen and ignited.
Blowing on a fire increases the supply of oxygen, which is necessary for combustion. More oxygen allows the fire to burn more efficiently and thus increase in intensity rapidly.
The space shuttle is able to fire its engines in space because it takes the needed oxygen with it.
Fire needs oxygen to burn, and space is a vacuum with no oxygen. Without oxygen, fire cannot ignite or sustain itself. Additionally, in the absence of gravity, flames burn in a spherical shape, which may not be easily visible from a distance.
fire can't exist in space, because there is no Oxygen in space and thats what fire feeds from
Things can not be set on fire in space because there is no oxygen in space.
There is no oxygen in space and fire needs oxygen.
Fire needs oxygen no matter where it is. It is a chemical reaction between oxygen and some flammable substance. On Earth, the air is already 21% oxygen, so you only need to supply the fuel. In space there is no air and thus no oxygen, so you need to bring oxygen or some comparable oxidizer with you.
Fire is a chemical reaction between oxygen and a flammable material. Without oxygen you are missing one of the ingredients.
If there is oxygen on the space station, a fire could burn. Fans do not produce oxygen, but they could help spread the fire.
No, because their is no oxygen in space.
There wouldn't be one. A fire needs oxygen in the first place.
Because when you blow on the coals you are adding oxygen to the fire and oxygen fuels a fire. A fire would simply go out without any oxygen. Because when you blow on the coals you are adding oxygen to the fire and oxygen fuels a fire. A fire would simply go out without any oxygen.
True, fire must have oxygen to burn.
