Why does a Candle Flame point upwards | Combustion & Flame | HOTS |
Think of the candle flame as a #helium-filled balloon: No matter which way you hold the string or the tied-off end, the balloon will stubbornly right itself. In fact, turn a candle upside down, and its flame will shift around to point to the ceiling, as if pulled by an invisible force.
The question now is, why does a #candleflame always point upwards?

Do you think the shape will remain the same? Does #gravity play a role?
