@vt.physics: Candle Trick Exposed: The Real Reasons It Relights! This is how a normal paraffin candle works: A candle works through a process of combustion, where lighting the wick melts the surrounding wax, which is then drawn up the wick through capillary action. The heat from the flame vaporizes the liquid wax, turning it into a combustible gas that burns, producing light and heat. This combustion continues to melt more wax, which keeps the cycle going as long as there is wax and oxygen. The wick acts as a conduit, while the wax serves as fuel, allowing the flame to sustain itself. #physics #Science #debunkingmyths #debunkinglifehacks #shorts
