candles burn as much wax as the wick can bring to the flame. It is typically a constant amount of wax being burned. Smaller diameter candles have less wax and therefor run out of wax to burn sooner.

What kind of candle burns the fastest?

the one with the thickest wick.The flame from the candle melts the fuel (beeswax, tallow, cocoa butter, paraffin, or other hard waxy fat substance) which is then drawn up the candle wick and fed to the flame. The thicker the wick, the more fuel can be fed to the flame, making the flame bigger and hotter and using up the candle faster.


Do bigger wheel roll faster?

No. Bigger wheels roll slower than smaller wheels. They roll slower because they have a larger circumference and they take longer to roll. Smaller wheels have a smaller circumference meaning they go faster.

Burning both ends of a candle simultaneously will cause it to burn faster and produce more heat and light. This can lead to the candle melting unevenly and potentially dripping wax, shortening its overall burn time.
