A 60 gram bullet fired from a gun with 3150 joules of kinetic energy has a velocity of 324.04 meters per second or 1,063.12 feet per second. (This is about 725mph).

When a bullet is fired upwards vertically it gains?
When a bullet is fired upwards vertically it gains kinetic energy.
When a bullet is fired from a rifle does the bullet have a greater momentum and kinetic energy than the rifle?
The momenta of the rifle and the bullet are equal and opposite. The bullet has greater kinetic energy than the rifle.
Can kinetic energy be measured?
Kinetic energy can be measured, but the act of measuring it changes the kinetic energy of the object you are measuring. For example, you can measure the kinetic energy of a bullet fired from a gun by allowing the bullet to strike an known object and then measure the deflection/deformation of the target object. While it is possible to measure the kinetic energy of the bullet this way, the bullet itself is no longer moving after this measurement, and therefore your measurement caused a change in the bullet's kinetic energy. . Kinetic energy (E) can be calculated without changing the kinetic energy of the object under observation if you know the mass (m) of the object and if you can observe or calculate its velocity (v) using the equation E=(1/2)m/v2.
What kind of energy is a speeding bullet?
It is KINETIC energy- mass in motion. Prior to being fired, the cartridge has POTENTIAL energy- stored, but not released (yet)
How does gravity affect the velocity of a fired bullet?
Gravity adds 32.1 feet per second to the bullet's downward velocity every second after the shot is fired.

The momenta of the rifle and the bullet are equal and opposite. The bullet has greater kinetic energy than the rifle.
When a bullet is fired from a rifle?
When a bullet is fired from a rifle, a chemical reaction in the gunpowder ignites, rapidly expanding gases build up pressure, and the bullet is propelled out of the barrel at high speed. The rifling in the barrel causes the bullet to spin, improving accuracy and stability. Gravity will eventually cause the bullet to drop due to gravity and air resistance.
How can energy be kinetic?
If you fired a bullet vertically upward, it would have kinetic energy at first, when it gets to the top of its travel this would all have been converted to potential energy.
How do you convert potential energy into kinetic?

What is the momentum of a bullet fired from a gun?
It is known as the Velocity (speed).
How does a bullet fired from a gun have ahigh momentum?
Momentum = mass x velocity A bullet has a high momentum because its velocity is really high.
Who many Fps for a 233 caliber bullet?
Bullets alone have no velocity. The .223 CARTRIDGE, when fired from an M16 rifle, will drive its bullet at about 3,200 fps. However, velocity depends on the makeup of the cartridge (powder charge, bullet weight) , and which firearm it is fired from.
If a bullet was fired down through the earth's atmosphere how long would it take and how fast would it be?
That would depend on the mass of the bullet, the bullet's velocity when it left the barrel of the gun, and from how high up the bullet was fired from.
