Why does a bullet ricochet sometimes when you shoot on a metal object with a gun and not always?
Frozenfranky
Lots of factors need to be taken into account:
* What angle does the bullet strike the object? * What is the mass of the object? If small it will move and absorb the energy. * What is the bullet made of? Does the deformation absorb the energy? * Is the object firmly fixed or movable? * How fast is the bullet moving?
