breathing among other things.Physics – Our experience with fire and the properties necessary in dealing with fuel, ignition, and combustion properties make us scientifically able to understand the necessary fear of fire. They also help us understand the methods of harnessing this energy and using it for our own purposes.Math - Mathematical formulas have been created to help us understand the actual chemical changes that take place with combustion, ignition, burn rates, etc. As in the physics of fire, the mathematical properties compound the destructive nature of fire and enhance the rightful fear of it. At the same time, it should be revered for these same properties.MIDTERM – QUESTION #6MEMETICSQ.
