Study Notes
Fire Requirements
- Heat: A source of energy, such as a spark or friction, is needed to raise the temperature of fuel to its ignition point.
- Fuel: A combustible material, like wood, paper, or gas, that provides the source of energy for the fire.
- Oxygen: A chemical element necessary for the combustion process. It acts as an oxidizer, reacting with the fuel to produce heat and light.
- Chain Reaction: A self-sustaining process where heat from the burning fuel ignites more fuel, continuing the fire.
- Removing any of the components (heat, fuel, or oxygen) will extinguish the fire.
- Water is a key element in extinguishing fires, as it absorbs heat and cools the fuel below its ignition point.
