"Powerful" is somewhat of a subective term, but the answer is yes. 5.56 is a rifle cartridge and 9mm, assuming you mean 9mm parabellum, is a handgun cartridge. Under normal circumstances, bullets fired from rifles will have more velocity and more muzzle energy than bullets fired from handguns.
9mm is cheeper cause it's a smaller round.

I just purchased a 9mm Beretta FS pistol. I would like to know the caliber of the round that this gun takes.
9mm IS the caliber. If you mean what is it equivalent to, it is approximately the same as a .38.
No. 9mm and .40 are not interchangeable.
9 millimeter is the caliber. IMPROVING ANSWER: A "9mm" bullet is actually .355 or .356 of an inch in diameter. So the caliber is about .36, but nobody calls it that because it would be confusing. Everybody calls it a 9mm and if somebody asks you what "caliber" that pistol is, you can answer "It's a 9mm" without having to add or explain anything. further improve: 9mm is the correct answer. you can find the caliber by measuring the diameter of the bullet. translate to millimeters or inches and that's the caliber. 9mm is a 9mm caliber not "around .36"
Assuming you're referring to the 9x19 Parabellum/Luger round, the 9mm travels faster than the .45 ACP.
The MP40 utilized 9mm bullets, in a 32-round stick magazine.
Glock is a brand. 9mm is a caliber size. So, there is no difference between a 9mm glock and a 9mm of another brand as far as caliber size.
No, the calibers and chamberings are completely different. It is not safe to attempt to fire any caliber of ammunition in a gun, other than what is stated on the barrel. actually the 380 caliber is almost equal to the 9mm. the 380 caliber is often refered to as a 9mm short. the difference is the 9mm case is slightly bigger then the 380 case and the 380 bullet might be a little lighter.......................
No. The Luger was a 9mm gun and the 50 Desert Eage is a 50 caliber gun. The 9mm round would fall out of the barrel, and if you did manager to get it to fire, you could damage the gun and/or hurt yourself.
