Muahahaha.
Yes, you are a hippie, as am I.
I am also a hippie with knowledge of physics and chemistry. Prepare yourself to be utterly BORED.
Heat in itself is in essence simply energy that is generated by molecules in motion. Meaning that when the electrons in a certain molecule start accelerating, then heat is created.
I break it down in physics, because it's easier for me..
To begin, I shall explain terms.
Q = heat energy. This is the total energy created by heat.
M = Mass of the object or substance in question.
/T (Delta T.) = change in temperature. (caused by the presence of heat. which is explained above.)
C = specific heat of a substance.
Formulas for heat look like this.
Q = M x C x /T.
--BLAH BLAH BLAH STUFF TOO BIG FOR QUOTE.--
As for one being needed more than the other...
Water makes up roughly 70% of the human body.
Water is needed for plants to grow. ALL plants. Fire is not.
Without water, we would not be alive
Without Oxygen, we would not be alive.
We can live without fire.
Case closed. Thank you for your time.
