Elemental magic - which is strong against which?
Water -> Fire: Water, like earth, is also used to extinguish fires. While yes, there are some fires that can't be put out by dousing them, the classical way in which we view fire is susceptible to water, and this water magic will trump fire magic. Fire -> Ice: On a pure physical level, fire melts ice. On a slightly more metaphysical level, fire ...

2018年4月5日 · Fire: This one's fine. Water/Ice: Ice is just frozen water, so you can simplify this one down to just Water. Wind/Air: Again, wind is just moving air, so you can simplify this one down to just Air. Lightning: I'd change this to Electricity, so it encompasses all forms of electrical energy and not just lightning. Earth/Metal: This is a tricky ...
What happens when two flames meet from opposite sides?
2019年1月14日 · Fire happens when some sort of fuel undergoes combustion. With dragons this is usually presumed to be a flammable gas they are exhaling. The danger of such a fire comes from the combustion heating the gases that result from the combustion and other nearby gases to such a high temperature that they'll burn you or set you on fire if they touch you.
physics - Crossbow that fires ice-bolts? Seeing as Ice Bullets are ...
$\begingroup$ A small part of me wants to offer a bounty on this question, requiring a "hard-science" answer referring to young's modulus of ice versus the woods, metals, and composites of typical bolts and arrows, compared to the mass of the bolt or arrow, against the forces and acceleration produced during firing of a bow, and maybe even the deceleration when …
science based - How could I scientifically explain ice breath ...
2015年3月3日 · $\begingroup$ @Oldcat it doesn't seem to be a big problem for plastic fire extinguisher nozzles. You get a big cloud of gaseous CO2 and solid CO2 ice-dust that (due to the pressure) has a lot of kinetic energy and travels a long way. See the video I just added to my answer. I'm not too concerned about the anatomy of dragons' throats.
Will fire still burn well in my atmosphere?: concentration vs partial ...
2024年8月25日 · Hypoxic fire suppression systems exist where the oxygen percentage is lowered to 15%. Hypoxic fire suppression wikipedia In a normobaric hypoxic environment, common materials cannot ignite or burn when exposed to a localized small scale ignition source. 1 A reduction of the oxygen level to 15% does not achieve conditions where a fire cannot ...
Explaining what exactly opposite magics are [closed]
2022年9月26日 · For instance, Fire and Ice. One is an abundance of heat while the other is a lack of heat. You could say that fire powers are at the opposite end of a spectrum from ice powers. Similarly with Light and Dark. Opposite ends of an illumination spectrum. But you have to get creative to fit everything into this kind of idea. Such as, Earth vs Air?
Mars paraterraforming (worldhouse) vs. full terraforming
2024年7月26日 · There are vast amounts of oxygen locked up in water ice and carbon dioxide on Mars. Enough water to cover the planet to a depth of 35m. Given sufficient energy this could be extracted by electrolysis of the water or by reduction of carbon dioxide or both so oxygen is not ultimately an issue.

2024年10月13日 · Because air tanks are bigger and heavier for their potential energy, you could make your weapon stronger and fire more rounds by using a chemical rocket to the same effect. Also, the projectile is called a slug, a bullet is a self contained slug and chemical propellant I was referring to the difference of using chemical vs compressed air to ...

2024年7月16日 · The oldest existing "eternal flame" is a coal seam fire near Mount Wingen, Australia. But that is only ~6000 years old... (only) Chemosynthetic microbes could produce fuel for fires in the form of Methane hydrates. Methane hydrate, also known as "fire-ice", is a naturally occurring frozen form of methane and water that's buried beneath the ...
