Which of the following is true of a carburetor back fire flame arrester?

A carburetor backfire flame arrester is designed to prevent flames or sparks from escaping the carburetor during a backfire. It is typically located at the top of the carburetor and consists of a mesh screen or metal plate with small holes that allow air to pass through while trapping any flames or sparks. This helps to prevent potential fires or explosions.

How big is a flame on a natural gas furnace?

The pilot flame is/should be about 1.5" long, the diameter of a pencil. When the burners are going, the gas is shot into the burner manifold, and the gas sent to the burner is designed to go to the back of the heat exchanger. So, in a typical 80,000 input heater, about 14"-18" long.


Why do you think the chemicals have to be heated in the flame first beforen the colored light is emitted?

The heat energy in the flame moves the metal atoms in the chemicals to a higher energy. When they reach the ground state which is there original position they give back their absorbed energy in the form of visible light.
