What are flares used for light?
Flares used for light are emergency signaling devices designed to produce a bright, visible light in distress situations. They are often used at sea or in remote areas to alert rescuers to the location of a person or vessel in need of help. The intense light from flares can be seen over long distances, especially in low visibility conditions like darkness or fog.
When should flares be used?
Flares should be used in emergency situations when immediate assistance is needed, such as when lost at sea or stranded in a remote area. They are typically deployed when other communication methods, like radios or mobile phones, are unavailable or ineffective. Flares can also be used to signal distress during accidents, breakdowns, or when visibility is low, helping rescuers locate the person in trouble.
How does a flare work?
A flare works by igniting a special chemical compound that burns intensely to produce a bright, visible light. When activated, the flare generates high heat and light for several minutes, making it visible from long distances. This allows the person in distress to signal for help, especially in low-visibility conditions or at night.
