The energy is converted to heat and to movement energy (kinetic energy); for example, to make a bullet move.

How much energy and velocity of a cannon?

The energy of a cannon depends on factors like its size, material, and the amount of gunpowder used. Velocity depends on the projectile weight, barrel length, and gunpowder used. A larger cannon with more gunpowder will generally have more energy and velocity.


What kind of energy does a shotgun use?

Mechanical energy (firing pin striking primer) that causes a release of stored Chemical Energy, that becomes Heat Energy (buring gunpowder creates expanding gasses) that becomes Mechanical Energy- shot is pushed out of barrel.


What is the energy conversion of a firecracker?

A firecracker converts chemical energy stored in its gunpowder into thermal and light energy when ignited. The combustion reaction in the gunpowder produces heat and light, resulting in the explosive effect of a firecracker.


Do Fireworks change blank into blank and blank energy?

Fireworks change chemical energy in the form of gunpowder into light, heat, and sound energy when ignited. The gunpowder in the fireworks undergoes a rapid chemical reaction, releasing energy in the form of a colorful display.


What types of energy is being released when a firecraker explodes?

When a firecracker explodes, chemical energy stored in the fireworks' gunpowder is rapidly converted into thermal (heat) and light energy. The gunpowder undergoes a rapid combustion reaction, releasing energy in the form of heat and light as the firecracker explodes.


How does energy transferred through the musket?

When the musket is cocked, mechanical energy is stored in the hammer spring. When the trigger is pulled, that energy is released, driving the flint against a part called the frizzen, making sparks. Those sparks ignite gunpowder, releasing the chemical energy in the gunpowder. It burns rapidly, changing its chemical energy to heat energy. The heat energy causes the gasses produced by the burning gunpowder to rapidly expand (heat to mechanical energy) The rapidly expanding gasses push the bullet out of the barrel at high speed.
