VERY URGENT NEED BY TONIGHT - 100 POINTS
The Great Fire of 1910 burned through parts of North Idaho, western Montana, eastern Washington, and southeastern British Columbia. Many small fires and several large fires that were started by an electric storm coalesced into one “Big Blowup” of unprecedented size that lasted two days. Hurricane-force winds spread the firestorm; trees became blowtorches, sucking fire from the ground and hurling it in several directions, spreading the fire on contact. Witnesses described fireballs being flung like cannons. Trees exploded like fireworks. The fire killed 87 people, destroyed several towns in its path, and burned more than three million acres of forest.
Explain how the fire spreading from tree to tree provides a model for conduction.
