ALL items- large or small- fall at the same speed when affected by gravity. A large bullet and a small bullet, both fired parallel to the ground, will hit at the same time if fired at the same time from the same distance above ground. The FASTER will hit further away, but at the same time.

Is a bullet fired into a gel or into what material when trying to identify the gun a bullet is fired from?
I used gelatin or a large water tank.
What gun has 13mm rounds?
The M1918 Mauser T-Gewehr fired a 13.2x92mm cartridge. It was the world's first anti-tank rifle. In comparison, a .50 BMG cartridge is 12.7x99mm.A large gun. That fires a bullet about a half inch in diameter.
Was the first vacuum brought to the household by horses?
The first vacuum was so large it was brought to a house by horses.
What would be the path of a bullet if fired in space?
Trajectory of a bullet in spaceAs per Newton's First Law of Motion, a body in motion tends to stay in motion (following a straight-line path), unless acted upon by an external force. If a bullet is fired on Earth, the external force that continuously acts on the bullet is the Earth's gravitational pull, which causes the bullet to travel in a curved (parabolic) path toward the Earth until it hits the ground. If a bullet is fired in outer space, however, it will be generally free from any external influences of celestial bodies; hence, the bullet will move in a straight line (and at constant speed) until it enters the gravitational field of a planet, star, or large asteroid, at which point its path will be deflected.Here's a question for you; Would there be any oxygen to ignite the primer on the bullet to make the bullet explode?
Can I vacuum up spills on my kitchen floor?
You can vacuum floors by turning off the brushes of the vacuum.However the vacuum isn't designed to ingest liquids in large quantities.A shop vacuum is a best for spills,but you want to remove the filter first.
What makes a car run high rpm and dies when you first turn on a vehicle?
A large vacuum leak could do that.
A rifle is fired and you are able to measure both the muzzle velocity of the bullet as well as the recoil velocity of rifle how do you explain the fact that the forward velocity of the bullet is great?
The forward velocity of the bullet is greater than the recoil velocity of the rifle because of Newton's third law of motion, which states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. When the bullet is fired forward with high velocity, the rifle experiences a recoil in the opposite direction but with lower velocity due to the mass difference between the bullet and the rifle.
Why in the first ger equals neration computer were very large?
Their active components were vacuum tubes (which were large) which generated lots of heat (which needed a large cooling system to remove that heat from the computer).
Can you fire a 44 caliber handgun with a 45 bullet?
In most circumstances, no. The bullet is too large to chamber in the handgun.
Can the 17hmr be fired in gun chambered for 22 LR and 22 mag?
NO. The case is too large to enter a 22LR chamber. If chambered in a .22 magnum, you will be firing a .17 caliber bullet out of a .223 barrel, with no accuracy at all, and splitting the cartridge case.
Why does a speeding bullet and a train have so much force?
Each of those items has large momentum and kinetic energy ... the bullet because of its high speed, and the train on account of its large mass.
What kind of bullet was capable of shattering bones in the Civil War?
During the Civil War, the Minié ball was the most common type of bullet used. It was designed to cause maximum damage by expanding upon impact, which could potentially shatter bones. The Minié ball had a conical shape with a hollow base that allowed it to engage the rifling in the barrel, resulting in increased accuracy and velocity.
