Does a bullet projected into the sky return at the same velocity it left?

Yes, it does, and it can do damage when it hits. No bullet shot from any gun comes even remotely close to going far enough to go into orbit.

How is velocity different from speed?
Velocity is a vector quantity and so has an associated direction.Speed is a scalar quantity and hence does not.Velocity is a vector and speed is a scalar Velocity is different because it also includes it's magnitude and direction. If positive is left and negative is right. Say a car is going in the positive direction then decides to stop and back up at the same speed it was going before. When it is backing up, it will be going in a negative direction. However, if it was speed, it's speed wouldn't change. Speed does not measure the magntidude or direction.Velocity is speed with direction . The formula of velocity is :v= delta "r" / t [ velocity = movement / time ]Speed is a movement without direction .The formula of speed is :v= S / tImagine a car moving forward for 50meters and then moving backwards for 20 meters .The movement in velocity (delta r) --> 50-20= 30mThe "s" in Speed ---> 50+20= 70mso in velocity you gotta take into consideration , whether the car moves forward or backwards . As far as speed is concerned , the only thing you need to do is summing up all the distance that the car's made .
What is trapped pressure?
This is the pressure left behind Non return valves (Check valves) without possibility of safe depressurization point.
Why do cars running very fast in a curve road tend to move out of the road in a path tangential to the curve road?
Velocity is a vector, meaning that along with the measurement of speed in meters/second, it also needs a direction. If a car was driving North at 10ms-1 that would be its velocity at that point. The car then turns left so it's travelling west at 10ms-1. The car's velocity has changed, therefore there must have been some acceleration for the car's velocity to have changed. That acceleration is always towards the middle of the circle that it is turning
Explain the difference between positive and negative acceleration?
well the difference between positive and negative velocity would have to be that if your motion speeds up than you have a positive and when or if your motion slows down then you would have a negative accelerarion!!!!
What three different ways object can move?
X, Y, Z left/right, forward/backward, up/down
If a bullet was fired down through the earth's atmosphere how long would it take and how fast would it be?
That would depend on the mass of the bullet, the bullet's velocity when it left the barrel of the gun, and from how high up the bullet was fired from.
How do you get out of Bulletpoints on Microsoft Word 2003 and return to typing where left margin starts please?
When you are finished typing your last bullet point, press enter/return twice to return back to the margin.
If your initial velocity was 10 ms-1 right and your final velocity was 5 ms-1 left what is your change in velocity?
The change in velocity is 15 m/s left.
Why is a bulleted paragraph described as a hanging indent?
A hanging indent is when the first line is all the way to the left and the other lines are indented until a hard return is entered. The bullet in a bulleted paragraph hangs over the rest of the paragraph until a hard return is entered and another bullet is used, so this is why a bulleted paragraph is described as a hanging indent.

Will bullet from a 45 semi automatic pistol pass through a human body?
There's no right answer to your question. There are a lot of variables, such as: * where did the bullet hit the body? * what was the velocity of the bullet when it hit? * was the bullet a hollowpoint or full metal jacket * what was the angle of the bullet's trajectory, etc...... If a .45 bullet hit someone in the hand, it would likely pass through, even if it hit a metacarpal bone. If a .45 bullet hit someone in the hip (say, from right to left), it would likely stay in the body If a .45 bullet hit someone in the abdomen, and hit nothing but intestines & muscles, it would likely pass through. Ballistics are strange and not always predictable. If you clarify your question, I can give you a better answer.

What determines the pattern of marks on a bullet?
Marks, or striations on a bullet are made from the bullet running against the metal of the gun. The barrel of the gun determines whether the bullet curves to the left or right.
