One Saturday Sam decides to burn off some old tree limbs and other landscaping debris at his home. He fails to consider how dry it is and how hard the wind is blowing and the fire spreads ultimately destroying his neighbors shed. Was Sam negligent?

The correct answer is Yes

He was negligent because he didn't care what might happen.

Forest fires can spread dramatically, burning large numbers of trees in just minutes.

Burning is a chemical reaction that needs three things to happen: material to burn, called fuel, oxygen supply and a source of heat to ignite, or ignite, the fuel.

A forest fire uses trees for fuel and oxygen from the air.

The heat needed to set trees on fire can come from lightning or a cigarette butt.

But once established, the fire itself produces the heat necessary to burn more trees.

The heat and light released during the fire comes from the energy stored in the trees.

Chemical reactions that release energy are known as exothermic reactions.

is this even a question? ? : /
