Suppose the candle was placed in a large, sealed jar that allowed it to burn for several minutes before running out of oxygen. The candle and jar are balanced by an equal weight. In this situation, what would happen if you lit up the candle and waited?

Respuesta :

If the candle was placed in a large, sealed jar that allowed it to burn for several minutes before running out of oxygen. The candle and jar are balanced by an equal weight. In this situation, the side with the lit candle would rise because the heat collects on the top of the jar and starts to make the jar lighter by carrying some of the wait, whether it be a little or a lot.

The side where the candle lit would rise due to accumulation of heat from burning of candle.

When the candle was placed in a large, sealed jar and allowed it to burn for several minutes before running out of oxygen, the heat accumulates at the upper part of the jar and as a result the warm air puts pressure on the jar.

If the gas pressure is larger than the weight of the jar. the jar will be lifted by the air otherwise it will remain the same so we can conclude that the motion of jar occurs due to the burning of candle which produces the air.
