== Flames generally "go up" because the hot gas produced due to combustion, being
much hotter and lighter than the surrounding air, have a lower density and hence rise
against the downward pull of gravity. == Fire burns upwards because as the heat grows then there is less oxygen in the air and as a result then the fire has to find more oxygen so that it can continue to burn
What else can I help you with?
Why fire moves up in direction?
Fire moves upward due to the natural convection process. As the fire heats the surrounding air, it becomes less dense and rises, creating a flow of air upwards. This convection current carries the flames and heat upwards, which is why fire tends to move in an upward direction.
Can fire burn on water?
Yes, fire can burn on water if certain conditions are met, such as using a flammable substance that can float on the water's surface.
Can fire burn on top of water?
Yes, fire can burn on top of water if certain conditions are met, such as using a flammable substance that can float on the water's surface.
How can you enhance the intensity of a fire to make it burn hotter?
To enhance the intensity of a fire and make it burn hotter, you can increase the supply of oxygen, add more fuel, or use a fire accelerant. These actions can help create a more intense and hotter burning fire.
Why does fire rise upwards?
Hot gases have less density than cooler gasses and so they "float" (move upwards). What you see of fire are hot gases that are oxidizing and giving off light.Experiment:An interesting experiment is to put a short candle in a jar with a tight lid. Light the candle and put on the lid, measure the time it takes for the candle to "suffocate".DON'T burn your fingers now!Repeat the experiment but this time as soon as the lid is on tight drop the jar (preferably from over two meters) and see if the flame does not go out much quicker because the hot gasses will not "float" up in the accelerating frame of reference that is the inside of the jar.Make sure the jar does not break by having something soft (a pillow or jumble of rags in a basket) where the jar lands.
What direction does a fire normally burns?
Fires typically burn upwards due to the heat rising and drawing fresh oxygen in from below. However, the direction a fire burns can be influenced by factors such as wind, fuel source, and environmental conditions.
When was Fire Water Burn created?
Fire Water Burn was created in 1996.
When was Long Burn the Fire created?

Why does flame require air to burn?
fire needs oxygen to burn, because fire is a chemical reaction that needs oxygen. the fire triangle is what fire needs to burn and is this- heat, fuel, and oxygen.
What things are needed for fire to burn?

Why can not we lite a fire on the Moon?
For a fire to burn the fuel making the fire has to combine with Oxygen from the Air. As there is no Air on the Moon, it is impossible for a fire to burn on the Moon.
