In most cases yes, to avoid excess weight, fewer plate-like materials are used. In any case, areas vulnerable to slashing, hacking and stabbing wounds are often available, and no personal armor is invulnerable.
I believe the answer you're looking for is, they were all invented by women, however, in the case of the bullet proof vest, a woman didn't actually invent the bullet proof vest. Stephanie Kwolek, a scientist for Dupont, devoloped Kevlar, a material used in bullet proof vests.
"Bullet proof glass" is not a single thing, but a class of building materials that are composite in nature (several layers of differing thickness and materials). Generally, the layers of ballistic glass include glass laminate, polycarbonate, or acrylics bonded with polyvinyl butyral, polyurethane or ethylene-vinyl acetate.
An inflated life vest is less dense than water, which allows it to float. The buoyancy of the vest is due to the trapped air inside, making it lighter than the volume of water it displaces. Therefore, an inflated life vest is less dense than water, but if you're comparing it to a non-inflated life vest, the inflated version is more buoyant but still has similar overall density characteristics.
Wearing a vest under your shirt may help you stay cooler by wicking away sweat and providing ventilation, but the effectiveness can depend on the material of the vest and the level of physical activity. In general, lightweight, breathable materials like moisture-wicking fabrics can help keep you cooler.
Kevlar vests typically have a lifespan of around 5-10 years, depending on usage and storage conditions. Regular inspections for wear and tear, exposure to sunlight, and proper care can help extend the vest's effectiveness. After the designated period, it is recommended to replace the vest for optimal protection.
yes if the person doesn't throw it.
If you are a felon, you can not possess a bullet proof vest.
I don't believe bullet proof vest were available during that time................
death. A bullet proof vest will not stop an RPG or do anything to reduce it's effect
No
Casimir Zeglen invented the bullet proof vest in the 1800's. More details can be found in the related link below.
