Answer / ashokkumar.a
the air contain many layers. the oxygen having more density
than carbon-di-oxide, hydrogen, nitrogen, etc., so when we
lighting the fire it produces carbon-di-oxide, as mentioned
above this is weight less than oxygen, so it tends to go
above the oxygen layer., thatswhy it goes in upward
direction...

Answer / edward mahoney
First you must go back to simple chemistry.
What is a fire? It is the combustion of carbon.
Carbon is being oxidised to form carbon dioxide.
This is exothermic, meaning what? It gives off ENERGY.
With A level Physics you learn that an atom with electrons
which has been excited will emit light photons, this is the
visable fire.
The rest of the energy is lost as heat, which will make the
carbon dioxide less dense as anything heated expands and
has a lower density. This lower density causes it to rise.
This is the ONLY reason a fire rises upwards. Ignore the
rubbish above, it isn't correct in the chemical or physical
processes.

The hottest potion of a flame is its tip. It is a general
physics that the hotter potion wil stay up,which infact
account for its particular shape.

a bullet of mass m travelling at velocity v has a kinetic energy of ½mv2 when it strikes a ballistic pendulum of mass 1000 grams. The kinetic energy of the twomasses moving together just after the moment of impact is about a thousand times smaller than ½mv2. What has most of the bullets initial kinetic energy beenconverted to?
