NATO 5.56 projectiles are 62 grain, and can be fired through a Mini 14.
Projectile, bullet
yes, although feeding difficulties with 5.56 ammunition aren't uncommon with the Mini 14 Ranch.
The rocket powered projectile does not have to be in a gun.
A projectile is a fired, thrown, or otherwise propelled object that is intended to hit a target. Examples of projectiles include bullets, arrows, and cannonballs.

No, a mortar is not a projectile. A mortar is a type of lightweight artillery used to launch explosive shells at a high angle to a target. The projectile refers to the actual shell or bomb that is fired from the mortar.
It has happened. During the American Civil War, a Union rifleman fired his rifle, and the projectile collided with the projectile fired by a Confederate rifleman - in the barrel of the Confederate's rifle. IIRC, that rifle was displayed in the Museum of American History.
Factors include the angle at which it is fired, the speed of the projectile, its shape (ballistic coefficient) the air pressure and humidity.
A bullet is simple a projectile normally fired from a firearm (Guns) that has one per pose which is to put a hole in what ever it is fired at.
Ignoring the effects of wind and air-resistance in general, maximum projectile range results when the projectile is launched/fired in a direction 45 degrees above the horizontal.
The acceleration of a projectile fired vertically down is equal to the acceleration due to gravity, which is -9.81 m/s^2. The negative sign indicates that the acceleration is in the downward direction.
