Ralph thinks that the beast on top of the mountain top is preventing them from the fire
why
for the fans
In Chapter 2: Fire on the Mountain the 'shameful knowledge' is the realisation that after they had spent much of their energy building a huge bonfire they had no way of lighting it. Ralph initially avoided making any confession by enquiring of Jack, "Will you... Will you light the fire?" To which Jack managed a mumbled reply about rubbing sticks together and then, to quote from the book... He glanced at Ralph, who blurted out the last confession of incompetence. "Has anyone got any matches?"
As "boys with sticks."
Sticks rubbing together is an example of friction, a force that opposes the motion of two surfaces in contact. When sticks rub together, the friction between them generates heat and can produce sparks, which is why rubbing sticks together is a traditional method for starting fires.
The friction caused by rubbing the sticks together causes heat causes the fire
heat energy
YES
To start fire with sticks, the sticks need to be very dry. Fire will be started by rubbing the sticks continuously together. Fire will be produced as a result of friction.
stick
Yes, people in prehistory invented this kind of lighting a fire. Rubbing two dry sticks together makes heat and if you are patient enough it will make fire.
The purpose of rubbing two sticks together is to generate friction, which can create enough heat to ignite the sticks and start a fire. This method is a traditional way of starting fires without the need for matches or a lighter.
Examples of two objects that rub together include rubbing a balloon against fabric to create static electricity or rubbing two sticks together to start a fire.
Brian may have struggled to make fire by rubbing sticks together because it requires a specific technique and a lot of practice to generate enough friction and heat. Additionally, the type of wood, the condition of the sticks, and the environment all play a role in successfully starting a fire with this method. It is also possible that Brian lacked the necessary strength or stamina to continue rubbing the sticks together long enough to create a spark.
Rubbing two sticks together will generate heat to start a fire.
Mechanical energy is being converted to thermal energy as the scout rubs the sticks together, creating friction that generates heat to ignite the fire.
