Dynamite's explosive power comes from the nitroglycerin inside of it, which is very sensitive to shock. If caught inside of an explosion, dynamite would go off.

Is a stick of unit dynamite an example of kinetic energy?
true
What two things dose kinetic energy depend on?
kinetic energy depends in two things POO and a STICK so kinetic energy is just POO on a stick
What type of energy does a stick of unlit dynamite demonstrate?
Chemical potential energy.
What type of energy is a pogo stick?
Kinetic.
What energy conversion occurs when a stick of dynamite explodes?
Chemical energy into heat, light, sound and very rapid motion.
Is a stick of unit dynamite an example of kinetic energy?
true
True or false a stick of unlit dynamite is an example of kinetic energy?
False, it is chemical energy
What kind of energy does dynamite produce?
It produces kinetic energy I think?
What two things dose kinetic energy depend on?
kinetic energy depends in two things POO and a STICK so kinetic energy is just POO on a stick
Is potential energy slower than kinetic energy?
Potential energy is unreleased energy - an unmoving rock at the top of a cliff, or a stick of dynamite. Potential energy becomes kinetic energy when it is released - the rock is falling from the cliff, or the stick of dynamite is exploding. So technically the answer is yes. Kinetic even means "motion"! But be careful about saying that potential energy is "slower" than kinetic, or in trying to distinguish between the two based on how fast you perceive an object to move. Kinetic energy doesn't necessarily make an object "look" as if it is moving faster. For example, heating water in a microwave converts potential energy (a difference in voltage between the two prongs of the microwave plug) into kinetic energy (an increase in the temperature of the water), but the water doesn't "look" as if it is going "faster" until it actually boils - the actual change in velocity is at the molecular level of the water.

What type of energy is a pogo stick?
Kinetic.
How many joules of energy in 1 stick of dynamite?
2.1 MJ
Can fused dynamite detonate unfused dynamite?
Yes, it is true that dynamite that is unfused near a fuesed dynamite stick can "explode" due to the combustion of the other stick of dynamite "going off:. Yes, it is true that dynamite that is unfused near a fuesed dynamite stick can "explode" due to the combustion of the other stick of dynamite "going off:.
What energy conversion occurs when a stick of dynamite explodes?
Chemical energy into heat, light, sound and very rapid motion.
What type of energy is being transfered when you play the drums?
Kinetic Energy from the stick, to elastic energy to the skin, to sound.
When you hit a wall with a stick what is the equal but opposite reaction?
While swinging the stick you have created potential energy within the stick's swing. This potential energy is converted into kinetic energy as the stick contacts the wall; but as the wall does not move, or moves quite neglibly, the kinetic energy is converted into loud sound energy. Nevertheless, not all of the kinetic energy is converted: the stick itself reacts, and there is a severe vibration that 'backfires' through the stick itself, if it is still held. In some cases, the stick will break. There is also a miniscule reaction-vibration through the wall itself. Additionally, what is not converted to any of these other energies is converted into heat energy at the point where the stick contacted the wall - both, on the stick and on the wall.
