Damage it how? Bend the cartridge in the middle, push the bullet into the cartridge case as it tries to feed... sales@countrygunsmith.net

A bullet traveling through the body causes tissue destruction through outward forces called?

A bullet traveling through the body causes tissue destruction through outward forces called cavitation. Cavitation occurs when the bullet creates a temporary cavity as it moves and displaces tissue, resulting in damage beyond the bullet's direct path.


What happens to k.e. of a bullet when ita penetrates into a target?

When the bullet penetrates into an object its velocity decreases very much or becomes 0 suddenly. This causes a change a momentum of bullet and impulse is applied. Technically the kinetic energy is converted to potential as a deformation occurs inside that object, transferring some of the kinetic energy into the object.


When does cross bridge cycling end?

Cross bridge cycling ends when calcium is actively transported back into the sarcoplasmic reticulum, leading to a decrease in intracellular calcium levels. This causes the tropomyosin to block the binding sites on actin, preventing myosin from interacting and forming cross bridges. This relaxation of the muscle allows the muscle fibers to return to their resting state.


How fast does a bullet shot at a 90 degree angle hit the ground?

It is a common belief that a bullet fired at a 90 degree angle, perpendicular with the ground, will impact the surface simultaneously with a bullet dropped at the same altitude of the muzzle of the gun firing the projectile.However, this theory cannot be confirmed due to several exterior ballistic variables such as ambient air density (temperature and humidity), air resistance, wind, Coriolis effect, Eotvos effect, and the ballistic coefficient of the projectile.With all of these variables excluded, there is one thing that still disproves this common misconception.. That being the Magnus Effect.Magnus EffectThe phenomenon whereby a spinning object in the course of a forward vector is acted upon by a perpendicular force caused by the object moving through a liquid or gas.When a bullet is fired, the rifling in the barrel causes the projectile to spin in a clockwise motion (in most guns), this causes the bullet to veer from its forward vector due to water in the air (humidity).Without wind, this phenomenon causes the bullet to rise and move to the right. This effect is very important to marksman because wind can force the projectile to ^roll^ or drop- a bullet subject to a downward-left force due to wind hitting the right side of the bullet.This effect can be accurately predicted based on the rifle's turn rate, which can increase or decrease the effect because various rifles are made to fire with a turn rate of either 1:9 or 1:12, meaning the bullet will complete a revolution once every 9 inches, or 12.


When a bulltet is fired from a rifle it is the bullet which causes damage but nit recoiling gun answer you according to momentum or third law of motion?

I believe that you are asking if the bullet is what causes so much damage to something it strikes, then why doesn't the shooter suffer an equivalent amount of damage? The answer does have a lot to do with momentum. I think that there may be some confusion between the conservation of momentum, which is the essence of Newton's Third Law, and the definition of kinetic energy.The magnitude of the momentum of the bullet just as it leaves the barrel of a gun is equal to, but in the opposite direction of, the magnitude of the momentum of the gun plus any momentum imparted to the shooter's body.I apologize if you already know much of my answer, but I will show the equations for momentum and kinetic energy. Momentum is a vector because it has both direction and magnitude, and the equation for momentum is p = m•v, where p is momentum, m is the object's mass in kg, and v is the object's velocity in meters/sec. (The vector quantities are in bold. I'm using the units prescribed in the kms system.)The reason the bullet causes damage to whatever it strikes is due to the bullet's kinetic energy, which is defined by the equation Ek=1/2mv2, where m is the mass of the bullet in kg and v is the bullet's speed in meters/sec. The fact that the kinetic energy is proportional to the square of the velocity is of paramount importance. Just like momentum, energy is also conserved. Energy (or the combination of energy and mass in the cases of nuclear fission and nuclear fission) is never lost; it can only change forms. All the energy released from every bullet, bomb, and shell used in World War II, or any other war, is still present somewhere in the universe, although almost all of it is still present on the Earth in some form. Thus, the kinetic energy of a bullet fired from a gun is initially exactly equal to the kinetic energy imparted to the backward-moving gun, the gun's report, the flash of light from the muzzle, the heating of the gun's receiver, chamber, and barrel, the heating of the bullet and of whatever it hit, the frictional heating of the air through which the bullet passed, and the energy expended in damaging what the bullet struck.The reason the shooter of the gun is not severely damaged (although anyone who has ever fired a very powerful rifle such as a 375 H&H or a 460 Wetherby Magnum might disagree) is because the energy of the bullet is proportional to the square of the velocity. Because the mass of the gun is so much greater than the mass of the bullet, the rearward velocity of the gun is very much less than the velocity of the bullet such that the gun cannot cause significant damage to the shooter.

What causes a bullet to spin?

There are spiral grooves engraved on the inside of a rilfe or pistol barrel. When a bullet is fired, it is forced into those grooves, which impart a spin to the bullet. The grooves are called rifling.


What causes a bullet to rotate on exit?

What causes it to rotate is the rifling in the barrel. What causes it to continue to rotate after it leaves the barrel is centrifugal force.

Could someone survive a bullet wound in the 1920s?

Yes, it's quite possible to survive from bullet wounds at any time including the 1920's, it all depends what injury the bullet causes, a flesh wound in the arm, leg, buttocks etc. is not usually fatal, if the bullet hits a vital organ such as the heart or brain, causes serious internal injuries or the wound becomes infected then you are in trouble.
