What is the energy conversion while a rocket is let to fly?
The chemical energy from the Hydrogen fuel is converted to kinetic energy while in movement. Some of it is converted to Gravitational Potential Energy as it gains altitude.
What kind of energy in the fuel of a rocket engine?
potential chemical energy
Can chemical energy be converted to gravitational potential energy?
By using chemicals in a rocket engine to raise a vehicle high above the earth's surface, the vehicle will gain gravitational potential energy. It will also gain kinetic energy, depending on what trajectory it follows
How does a rocket gain potential energy?
There is more than one kind of potential energy. A rocket, when fueled, has chemical potential energy. When it burns its fuel, it loses chemical potential energy but gains gravitational potential energy. If it then falls back to the ground it loses gravitational potential energy but gains in heat and kinetic energy, until it burns up or crashes.
As rocket rises its kinetic energy changes at the time the rocket reaches its highest point most of the kinetic energy in the rocket has been?
Most of the kinetic energy will have turned into potential energy - all of it, if there is no friction.Most of the kinetic energy will have turned into potential energy - all of it, if there is no friction.Most of the kinetic energy will have turned into potential energy - all of it, if there is no friction.Most of the kinetic energy will have turned into potential energy - all of it, if there is no friction.

As a rocket rises its kinetic energy changes. At the time the rocket reaches its highest point most of the kinetic energy of the rocket has been and mdash?
When an object - rocket or otherwise - rises, its kinetic energy gets converted to gravitational potential energy. At its highest point, if it rises directly upwards, all the kinetic energy will be converted to gravitational potential energy. However, its movement may also have a sideways component; in that case, not all the kinetic energy is converted to potential energy.

What is the energy source for a rocket?
Rocket fuels are used. It contains chemical energy
What chemical reaction takes place when a rocket takes off?
Rockets with today's technology will burn a fuel. That means that chemical energy is converted into heat; when the gases of the burning fuel get out of the rocket, the heat energy is converted into kinetic (movement) energy.

The fuel used in a rocket is energy stored as?
chemical energy
Where does the energy for a rocket's liftoff come from?
Chemical energy, stored in the fuel.
What does Gasoline and rocket fuel store?
They both contain potential energy, so the answer is "energy" .
When rocket reenters the atmosphere its nose cone beomes hotwhere does this heat energy come from?
From the rocket's movement energy (formally called kinetic energy). As the rocket slows down through friction, its kinetic energy is converted mainly to heat energy.
