This will depend upon what it hits, what type of bullet it is, the angle of impact, the angle of reflection, if any rotation or torsion is placed upon the bullet, the depth of the impacted object, etc.
The deceleration can vary from 100% (the bullet stops) to less than 1% (practically no energy lost) depending upon the interaction of the above variables.
What else can I help you with?
Ignoring air resistance a bullet fired horizontally has how many forces acting on it after leaving the rifle?
One. Only the bullet's weight. In this case, the bullet would not decelerate and will keep moving at muzzle velocity until it hits the ground.
Why is a ricochet produced on firing a bullet?
A ricochet occurs when a bullet hits something it cannot penatrate.
Can a slug bullet kill you?
Yes, any bullet can kill you. The amount of damage a bullet does depends on several factors, basically: where it hits you, how hard it hits you, and how big the bullet is (or how much it expands).
What does a m16 bullet do after impact?
There'll be some deformation, it may fragment if it hits bone or a hard object, and it'll tumble inside of a body cavity.
What do you call it when a bullet hit a bee it a joke?
When a bullet hits a bee, you call it a biscuit bullet.
How do guns fire?
Most of the time there is a firing pin, which hits the back of a bullet when the trigger is pulled. The firing pin hits the back of the bullet and ignites the gunpowder inside of the bullet. The bullet then becomes a small unguided rocket and hits something in the direction the gun was aimed at.
Can a body builder take a bullet to the chest?
As with anyone it depends on the bullet and where it hits.
Can a high velocity bullet be traced if it hits glass?
Possibly. Depends on the specific bullet, the glass it hits, damage done to the bullet, etc. To perform a ballistic marking match, the bullet must have areas that are relatively undamaged.
Can a bullet ricochet off a tree and cause injury or damage?
Yes, a bullet can ricochet off a tree and cause injury or damage. When a bullet hits a hard surface like a tree, it can bounce off at an unpredictable angle, potentially hitting a person or object nearby. It is important to always be cautious and aware of your surroundings when shooting firearms outdoors.
When a stones hits a glass breaks out when bullet hits the glass it makes a holewhy?
because bullet has great velocity and it has less surface area on tip means it is pointed
What happens to k.e. of a bullet when ita penetrates into a target?
When the bullet penetrates into an object its velocity decreases very much or becomes 0 suddenly. This causes a change a momentum of bullet and impulse is applied. Technically the kinetic energy is converted to potential as a deformation occurs inside that object, transferring some of the kinetic energy into the object.
What are bullet resistent materials?
these are materials which are extremely strong, yet flexible. strong as to not break when a bullet hits it, and flexible so it can absorb some of the shock from the bullet
