It depends, because different bullets hit at different velocities and with different force.
....Actually, it depends on how you apply it. If you are talking about plate armor then, yes, you will need a thicker section of metal. However, if you apply it as an ablative scale-type armor, woven into a layered fabric for instance, you can easily diminish the overall thickness. Some companies have even explored the use of powdered metals as a form of armor as the bullet strike acts as a hardening catalyst upon impact to absorb the force of the round and prevent penetration of the inner body of the armor. Titanium gel armor is a great example of this technology. The trade off with this tech is it retains body heat to the point it is not feasible for use in hot climates. The next generation of form fitting Exo-Armor will no doubt feature it as an external coating, though.
Generally and practically speaking, no... If you had a very thick plate of either, then yes. There are so many variables involved in a calculation like this; a .22 caliber air rifle bullet is going to have a lot less energy than a .50 caliber bullet, for example. Additionally, hardened materials are less likely to withstand a heavy impact as 'brittleness' increases with harness and so will often shatter - glass is a prime example, try scratching it - you won't be able to to it, but hit it with a stone... it'll smash.
Then it comes that Titanium and Aluminium are very different alloys anyway, very very different in terms of strength - and Aluminium can't be significantly hardened. Bullet proofing materials tend to be much more flexible and softer than said metals as they need to absorb the energy of the impact, research materials like Kevlar.
We have several variables here. Titanium can be made in various thicknesses, and bullets can be made in various calibers. Some bullets will bounce off some titanium armor. Also, you should understand that titanium is not stronger than steel. The usefulness of titanium is that it has a better strength to weight ration than steel. But if weight is no object, as in a tank, you would want to use steel armor, not titanium.
Yes, but only in certain thickness... which means the question is meaningless. Paper is "bulletproof," if you have enough of it.
Any metal can stop a bullet, if it is thick enough.
Yes
Titanium is a pure element not an alloy.
The latin name for Titanium is Titanium. The Czech name for Titanium is Titan.
Zinc does not react with titanium but it could be alloyed with titanium.
Titanium dioxide, also known as titanium(IV) oxideor titania, is the naturally occurring oxide of titanium, chemical formula TiO2.

Don't fire your guns at the rocks or the bullets will ricochet. The soldier was hit by a ricochet.
Yes, bullets can ricochet from striking frozen ground, from water or any hard object.
From the French word, the proper spelling is ricochet (to rebound or bounce, notably bullets).
You shout it out But I can't hear a word you say I'm talking loud, not saying much I'm critisised But all your bullets ricochet You shoot me down But I get up [Chorus] I'm bulletproof, nothing to lose Fire away, fire away Ricochet, you take your aim Fire away, fire away You shoot me down But I won't fall I am titanium You shoot me down But I won't fall I am titanium -Instrumental- Cut me down But it's you who'd have further to fall Ghost town, haunted love Raise your voice, Sticks and stones may break my bones I'm talking loud, not saying much [Chorus] I'm bulletproof, nothing to lose Fire away, fire away Ricochet, you take your aim Fire away, fire away You shoot me down But I won't fall I am titanium You shoot me down But I won't fall I am titanium -Instrumental- Stone-hard, machine gun Firing at the ones who run Stone-hard, those bulletproof guns You shoot me down But I won't fall I am titanium You shoot me down But I won't fall I am titanium You shoot me down But I won't fall I am titanium You shoot me down But I won't fall I am titanium
A bullet with a full metal jacket has a tendency to ricochet pretty hard after hitting the targets. This is why at most indoor and outdoor ranges bullets with full metal jackets are banned.
Shoot at a wall when you are close to it and it is at your side. if shooting at the right angle your bullets will keep going but bounce of the wall.
If you have ever been caught in an automatic weapons crossfire at night you will have seen tracer bullets collide and ricochet off at crazy angles. Those are full metal jacket bullets.
