Question:

How is it in a fire that a parent watched his son or a friend watched his friend pull the fire alarm?

In a fire how is it that a father watched his son pull the fire alarm or a friend watched his friend pull the fire alarm? Can a mature son who knows there is a fire ask his dad if he could pull the alarm? Could the father go with the son in a safe location to keep his son calm and to see if it is working. Could a father say to his son how to break the glass or to pull the lever down. If the lever did not go down the first time could the father say pull it again your doing a good job. Or when the son is pulling the alarm can the father say you are doing a good job and say the handle will lock into place and to wait until the alarm sounds?

By radiant heat. A vacuum only prevents conduction and convection, not radiation. Radiation is not just atomic radiation; it is also light and heat and radio waves. Thermos bottles protect against radiant heat by hading the inside of the vacuum jacket silvered, like a mirror.
