Forest Fires

Water and flame retardants dropped by both firefighters on the ground and by aircraft

Use your cell phone to place a call to the fire department.

fire drills are like practicing if there were a real fire so we would know what to do right away

the plants would be effected because #1 there burned or#2 they are dying from the loss of shade from the trees being burned. some plants adapt to fires and become immune or they have natural oils that prevent the fire

Small plants grow but are eventually replaced by larger plants.

Firefighters use a variety of tools to extinguish wildfires, including planes and helicopters that drop a mixture of chemicals and water on the fire. They also use a Pulaski to dig a fireline, smoke jumpers, and hotshots.

Forest fires have many effects on people, both direct and indirect. Usually, when forest fires spread they threaten to spread to nearby towns, which can burn them down. Fires also give off a lot of carbon monoxide, which can later cause acid rain. Forest fires also destroy animal's natural habitats, which kills animals and disrupts the food chain, which may later have an effect on people. Forest fires also can destroy tree farms, which are valuable sources of lumber and paper for people. Lastly, forest fires destroy the beautiful natural wilderness, so later no people can enjoy the beauty of nature! :'(

thee must have been a lot because a lot of people throw their cigarettes in the forest and a lot of people camp

with a burning fire to keep them warm but the can get out of control

Fire goes faster up hill for two reasons, first because the angle of the hill provides fuel to the fire at a faster rate, second because heat rises the fuel for the fire is pre-heated causing it to become more flammable.

There are about 30 - 50 or more fires a year, including bushfires . ---- This figure does not include the innumerable bushfires that occur in Australia every summer. Many years they are just spot fires that may burn hectares of land but cause little other damage. Some years, a large number of bushfires come together to cause immense devastation in Victoria, New South Wales or South Australia.

sorry i dont have alot of time but i have 2 answers:

1. the comunity helps clean up.

2. if something belonging to the comunity is burn or something else has happen ther in money for that.

gas flame

Fire is extremaly hot and it can burn of your skin and you could also die. Don't go near fire!

The dryness after the wet season

Forest fires can cause destruction of habitats for plants and animals, loss of biodiversity, soil erosion, air pollution from smoke, and contribute to climate change by releasing carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. Additionally, they can result in property damage, human displacement and health issues from smoke inhalation.

Wattage and voltage are two different forms of measuring electrical power.

Voltage is measure of the strength of an electrical charge.

Wattage is the measure of the consumption of that charge.

Wattage is used to measure the heat generated from the flow of electricity between two points whereas voltage measures the density of electrical charge of that flow. The wattage produced is directly proportionate to the electrical resistance of the item when voltage is applied to or travels across it. This is why a 100 watt bulb is brighter than a 50 watt bulb. By using an element with a higher resistance to an electrical charge in a 100 watt bulb than a 50 watt bulb the 100 produces a higher "glow" because the electricity cannot travel as freely across the element causing it to heat up thereby consuming a larger amount of the charge passing through it. The amount the charge dissipates from one side to the other is the wattage. Or more eloquently stated as Ohm's law: The current through a conductor between two points is directly proportional to the potential difference across the two points.

Fireweed, whose seeds are carried on the wind similar to cottonwood tree or dandelion seeds, quickly colonizes areas disturbed by fire. I have personally seen areas that burned one year be completely filled with the purple blooms of fireweed the next.

Because cellular respiration is the process by which turning ADP into ATP, while burning a fire is just a release of energy.

Cellular Respiration= gaining of energy

Burning a fire=losing energy.

Wildfires in Southern California happen as often as conditions permit, really. There are usually brushfires every year, but 90 percent of the time they only burn a few hundred or couple thousand acres per fire, and most do not threaten homes. It is the big fires, fueled by fierce winds that tend to threaten homes. Remember that most wildfires start with a heat source such as the sun or someone committing arson, and are then fueled by low humidity and high wind.

One animal that has a very flexible posterior and can withhold extreme climate's even heat like fire is some tropical squid.

in a way they do because they illiminate some trees and help control the forests because if there were no forest fires and deforestation then trees can take over and we would be gone but there will be some left for oxygen

forest fires usually occur inthe hottest season because of lightning sometimes occur and the sun's heat onthe dried grass and leaves

it can be to hot and the sun can be focusing on one thing, if there is no breeze or water it can get really hot and catch on fire, a wildfire can also start if humans mess with lighters, cigarettes and many more.

Statistics for bushfires in Victoria, arguably Australia's most bushfire-prone state, indicate that the most common cause of bushfires in lightning strikes, accounting for 26% of fires in that state.

This is just ahead of 25% for deliberately lit fires.

See the related link below for more causes and the percentages for each.

Man made fibers are made from Man made products.

Products that are not found in nature naturally. Plastics, nylon, polyester, acrylic and polyolefin for example are all man made compounds

Nearly all of the manmade fibers are made from petroleum products.
