it depends where, what angle . if the bullet is led no it will splatter on a bone but it might go in the tissue and it depends how far you are up close it will go right though you! but if you were standing on a 4 story building and a person shoots from the ground you, will be like a paint ball it depends where, what angle . if the bullet is led no it will splatter on a bone but it might go in the tissue and it depends how far you are up close it will go right though you! but if you were standing on a 4 story building and a person shoots from the ground you, will be like a paint ball

Can you trace a bullet back to its gun?

Sometimes you can.


Why does a bullet fired comes down at rest after covering a certain distance?

Two factors- air resistance and gravity. Air resistance is simply slowing the bullet down by having to push air out of the way. Gravity acts on bullets the same way it works on a baseball- it pulls the bullet down. How far a bullet will travel is a function of it's speed, it's shape and size (air drag) and the angle in relation to the earth it was fired along. But sooner or later, they all come back down.


Could a metal plate in someone's head withstand a bullet?

it would most likely not because of the impact of the bullet hitting the metal plate the metal plate would be pushed back pushed back behind the skell whichh would then hit the brain and cause lack of brain funktion


If an object in motion will stay in motion what causes a bullet shot into the air to fall?

An object in motion will stay in motion until acted on by another opposing force. So gravity causes a bullet to fall back to the ground, but wind and air resistance cause the bullet to not fall strait back from where it came, aka one barrel. ____________ The above is true, only if Newtons theories are correct. If Newtons Theories are incorrect, then the bullet performs in the manner The Creator of all things and happensings decreed that it will. [see discussion on this comment]


Does a bullet to the brain kill instantly?

Depends on many factors: caliber of bullet, velocity, direction, etc.... Generally, if a bullet damages both left & right hemispheres of the brain, the outcome will be fatal, but not necessarily immediate. Consciousness is often lost immediately. If a bullet travels front to back, or back to front and only damages one side of the brain, the undamaged side CAN compensate and the victim can recover to various degrees. Of course, large caliber bullets and shotgun damage to the head generally don't leave much chance for recovery. If anything, these types of weapons kill instantly, more or less.

How far did the bullet travel in the single bullet theory?

Less than 200 feet. The "single bullet theory" is kind of a misnomer, as under this theory, two bullets were actually shot -- on hitting JFL in the head and the other hitting JFK in the back/neck and then going on to hit Gov Connolly. Some people call this the Single Bullet Theory in reference to that particular bullet. All the shots taken by Oswald were relatively close range.


Why does the gun recoils and puch the person back when fired?

When a gun is fired a bullet (or cartridge) with a small mass but a very high velocity is ejected. The recoil of the gun is a reaction to this force and is sufficient to push back the person who fired the weapon.

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.

Firing distance range of Beretta 92FS caliber 9mm Parabellum I was told it has such range that I'm concerned about hitting an unintended person if I ever had to use it. Yes I hit my targets fine.?

If there is a possibility that a bullet can travel in a direction where it might hit someone, the answer is to simply not shoot there. SAFETY FIRST is the No. 1 Rule. The Caution on a box of .22 rimfire bullets say it will shoot 1 mile. A 9mm bullet should travel much further. Also, do not assume a gun range is safe because it has a backstop. Some out-door ranges have obstacles such as rocks and trees that could possibly deflect a bullet up and then back down in a different direction.

What happens to projectiles fired vertically into the air Discuss the factors that determine the speed of return to earth Are they still dangerous?

If a gun is fired into the air at a perfect right angle to the earth, the bullet will travel straight up until it stops and falls back to earth. When the bullet reaches the ground, it will be travelling at the same speed as when it exited the gun. Being hit with this bullet would be the same as being shot.
