What are the different types of chemical reactions? : 

What are the different types of chemical reactions? Combustion Synthesis Decomposition Single displacement Double displacement Acid-base http://misterguch.brinkster.net/6typesofchemicalrxn.html http://www.chemistryland.com/CHM130W/08-Equations/TypesReactions/DecompositionShortStill.gif

What is a combustion reaction? : 

What is a combustion reaction? A combustion is a chemical change, that is oxidation, followed by the production of heat and light. http://www.answers.com/topic/combustion http://i.ehow.com/images/a05/a3/aj/determine-type-chemical-reaction-200X200.jpg

What is the fire triangle? : 

What is the fire triangle? The fire triangle is a demonstration, of the science of firefighting and it is used to understand the things that are important for fires. http://dictionary.babylon.com/fire%20triangle http://curriculum.toxicology.wikispaces.net/file/view/Presentation6.jpg/56056404/Presentation6.jpg

What is activation energy? : 

What is activation energy? Is the energy that a atomic system must need before something is being started and a reaction can occur. http://wordnetweb.princeton.edu/perl/webwn?s=activation%20energy https://chemistry.twu.edu/tutorial/activation-energy.gif

Why is heat/energy a necessary part of the fire triangle? : 

Why is heat/energy a necessary part of the fire triangle? The heat is am important part of the fire triangle because it helps start a fire it is important to add heat to the fuel in a flame. The heat has to raise the fuel to its desired temperature. And energy is necessary to because energy is goes to other fuel and oxygen molecules. The energy stored in fuel releases heat, light, and other kinds of energy's. when you take out the fuel the fire will stop burning. http://www.survivaltopics.com/survival/fire-tetrahedron/ http://www.survivaltopics.com/survival/fire-tetrahedron/ http://www.asi.com.ph/images/fires/firelogic.png

How is the cooktop of your stove a real-life example of a fire triangle? : 

How is the cooktop of your stove a real-life example of a fire triangle? A cooktop of a stove is a real life example because the stoves needs heat, oxygen, and fuel to cook food and other things. www.appliancist.com/ge-cooktop- http://assets.vacationhomerentals.com/assets/propimg/99/25899/241_new_kitchen_stove.jpg

What is a combustion engine? : 

What is a combustion engine? A Combustion engine is a engine that a fuel-air mixture is burned in the engine correctly, and the hot gas products of the engine can act forwardly on the surfaces of its moving parts. http://www.answers.com/topic/internal-combustion-engine http://img.directindustry.com/images_di/photo-g/internal-combustion-engine-27659.jpg

How does a combustion engine work? : 

How does a combustion engine work? When you put a small amount of high-energy fuel in a small, space and ignite it, an enormous amount of energy is released in the form. Most engines with a high horse power work by putting the combustion principle. Heavy engines work on heavy fuels such as diesel or heavy fuel oil. http://ezinearticles.com/?How-Does-Internal-Combustion-Engine-Work?&id=3565567 http://www.howstuffworks.com/engine1.htm

How are NASCAR engines different from street car engines that allow them to operate at much higher speeds? : 

How are NASCAR engines different from street car engines that allow them to operate at much higher speeds? NASCAR engines-NASCAR cars are handmade. The bodies are built from flat sheet metal. And it has more combustions which then makes it go much faster. Runs at higher speeds too. Car engines- their engines are smaller and doesn’t go as fast as NASCAR cars. It Has mufflers, doesn’t need nitrous oxide. http://scrapetv.com/News/News%20Pages/Sports/images-2/nascar-race-2.jpg http://auto.howstuffworks.com/auto-racing/nascar/nascar-basics/nascar.htm http://www.find-a-part.com/images/rev-pics/Honda-Accord.jpg

How does nitrous oxide help engines perform better? : 

How does nitrous oxide help engines perform better? Nitrous oxide is popular because it increases horsepower because of the power. If the installer and operator are fully on, it can be used till the cows come home without any effect on the engine. It helps them by performing better, and above what they are designed to do. They also help them run faster. http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20091010040657AAxtWHi http://www.fordmustang.in/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/nossystems.jpg

Ex. Of cheating in NASCAR when something was done illegally to increase the combustion performance of the engine : 

Ex. Of cheating in NASCAR when something was done illegally to increase the combustion performance of the engine Michael Waltrip was penalized and also his crew team for using a fuel additive. "I didn't want to damage the integrity of the sport further by going out there and having people think, 'What's he doing out there?"' Waltrip said. "I came real close to not running today."Waltrip's team was one of five busted for breaking the rules before the season opener — the sport's most significant crackdown on cheating and a clear message the sanctioning body no longer will tolerate teams breaking the rules. http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2007/02/15/sportsline/main2480661.shtml http://www.orbitcast.com/archives/michael-waltrip.jpg
