Obviously I don't mean wood! How long do I need to leave , say, a dry pile of leaves in the sun before it goes up in smoke? Is it still a very high temperature? Coal, compost, sawdust, etc, whats the danger zone of steady high heat with respect to combustion?

Start a fire with leaves, sawdust, and compost only then bozo! I don't drat think so

Edit: wood is not generally (completely) dry, is the thing. It also takes more energy to heat up with something with a large surface area

lol what no a large surface area makes it easier to burn, you could easily set some sawdust on fire with a bic lighter but trying that with a log would take considerably longer

wet hay can spontaneously combust for roughly the same reason. microbes generating heat that gets trapped inside a big flammable insulator.

No? You can set steel wool on fire because it has a reactant that allows it to do that. I meant the surface area of a log of wood is greater than a twig. You're talking about the surface area of a reactant rather than the surface area of the object

You can't heat up the ocean faster than you can a puddle. Which has a greater surface area?

:sickos:Hypercanes would have wind speeds of over 800 kilometres per hour (500 mph), potentially gusting to 970 km/h (600 mph), and would also have a central pressure of less than 700 hectopascals (20.67 inHg), giving them an enormous lifespan of at least several weeks. This extreme low pressure could also support massive storm systems roughly the size of North America

The waters after a hypercane could remain hot enough for weeks, allowing more hypercanes to form. A hypercane's clouds would reach 30 to 40 km (20 to 25 mi) into the stratosphere. Such an intense storm would also damage the Earth's ozone layer, potentially having devastating consequences for life on Earth. Water molecules in the stratosphere would react with ozone to accelerate decay into O2 and reduce absorption of ultraviolet light.

Well at least I won't have to go to work.

surface area relative to mass

separate the ocean into a bunch of puddles and those puddles will warm more quickly than the ocean as a single mass
