Why does an arrow shot from a bow have a large momentum?

When an arrow is shot from a bow it gains kinetic energy from elasticity in the bw string. When pulled back there is potential energy. The farther it it pulled back the more energy is gained. When released it is converted into kinetic energy. Thus it has large Momentum Momentum is the force and speed at which the object is moving


What kind of energy is the archer giving the string of a bow?

potential when still kinetic when moving


In archery when a bow is released what forms of energy are involved?

once it is fully drawn back it is potential energy, when it is released it becomes kenetic. i believe it is also potential while it is in the motion of being drawn back, as should it be let go at at any stage of drawing, it would become kenetic.


When you draw back and bend a bow you do work in bending the bow and give the arrow in the bow kinetic energy?

When you bend the bow, you are imparting kinetic energy from your pull into the bow as potential energy. When you release the string, you are imparting that potential energy into the arrow through the string.


What kind of energy is an example of potential energy?

potential energy is stored energy so like, pulling a bow and arrow, pulling the bow back is a form of potential enegry because it's stroing energy This would be an example of elastic potential energy. Other types include gravitational potential energy, electrical potential energy and chemical potential energy.


When an arrow shot from its bow it has K.E. From where does it get K.E?

When you stretch a bow , the work done by you in stretching the bow is stored in the form of potential energy . This potential energy get converted in to kinetic energy of the bow when released.


What energy is in a bow and arrow?

There is no energy there until the bow string is stretched. The human arm pulling back on the bow string is the source of the energy which is stored mechanically in the flexure of the bow and converted into the kinetic energy of the arrows flight when the archer releases the arrow.


Is a pulled bow ready to shoot an arrow is it a potential or kinetic?

Potential.


What energy takes place as an arrow is shot from a bow?

The moment the arrow is released, potential energy (elastic energy in the bow) is converted into kinetic energy.


What is a 'Bow-stopper' and 'Chain stoppre?

bow stopper is use to hold the cable chain of an anchor not to slip into sea bed when pulled up.....and chain stopper is use to hold the chain cable when is pulled up...
