Known as the Miznay-Schardin effect, a section of metal is shaped into a projectile by the force of an explosion. Also known as a platter charge, a metal disk with explosives on one side is turned from a disk into a bullet when the explosives are detonated, and driven forward at high speed at the same time.

What does the word ballistic mean and how do you use it?
ballistic: crazy, uncontrolled " BALLISTIC person"= "crazy person" Ballistic has a specific technical meaning. It refers to the flight, behaviour and terminal effect of projectiles that are unguided. The study of this is known as ballistics. An example sentence might be "A bullet fired from a gun behaves as a ballistic projectile".
Is it true that projectiles are always affected by centripetal force?
No, projectiles are not always affected by centripetal force. Centripetal force only comes into play when there is circular motion involved. In the case of projectiles, the force of gravity is the dominant force acting on the object.
A device for throwing stones or other projectiles?
A catapult is a device used for throwing stones or other projectiles. It uses tension or torsion to store energy and release it rapidly to propel the object. Catapults were historically used in warfare for sieges or to launch projectiles over walls.
What are the heat proj ectiles?
Heat projectiles are weapons that release projectiles that deal damage through heat or fire. These projectiles typically ignite upon impact, causing burn damage over time to the target. Examples include flamethrowers, incendiary grenades, and fire arrows.
Do ballistic experts study bombs?
A ballistic expert is unlikely to study the nature of a bomb, ie, the chemistry and engineering of the internal components, but they will surely study the physics of their flight, behaviour and effects, in the case of projectile or gravity explosives.
Heat projectiles specifically designed to attack?
HEAT (high explosive antitank) projectiles are specifically designed to attack armored vehicles.
Heat projectiles are dedigned to attack?
Tanks. HEAT is High Explosive Anti-Tank.
What are heat projectiles specifically designed to attck?
HEAT - High Explosive Anti Tank - projectiles are designed for use against armoured vehicles and reinforced fortifications.
What are the heat projectiles specially designed to attack?
HEAT - High Explosive Anti-Tank - projectiles are intended for use against armoured vehicles and other hardened targets.
What are heat projectiles specifically designet to attack?
HEAT stands for High Explosive Anti-Tank. It is an explosive shaped charged designed to penetrate armour plate.
Explosive-loaded projectiles can be as small as one inch in diameter?
There have been explosive loaded projectiles MUCH smaller than 1 inch- however, as the size of the projectile decreases, the space available for, and the possible weight of, explosives becomes so small as to make the presence of explosives meaningless.
What are heat projectiles specifcallu designed to attack?
HEAT - High Explosive Anti Tank - projectiles are designed specifically to be employed against armoured vehicles. They may also be used against fortifications.
What heat projectiles design to attack?
HEAT = High Explosive Anti TankThey're designed to attack armoured vehicles and fortifications.
How can uranium be used for war?
- Enriched uranium is used as explosive in some nuclear weapons. Depleted uranium is used for: - armors - projectiles - ballast
Are cannonballs explosive?
No, cannonballs are solid metal projectiles designed to be fired from a cannon. They rely on kinetic energy and momentum to inflict damage, not explosives.
What is formed by explosive eruptions by a volcano?
Explosive eruptions will produce pyroclastic rocks such as scoria, pumice, and tuff.
What type of material is produced by explosive eruptions?
Explosive eruptions typically produce pyroclastic material, which includes volcanic ash, lapilli (small rocks), and volcanic bombs (larger, rounded projectiles). These materials are ejected with great force during explosive eruptions, causing widespread damage and forming deposits around the volcanic vent.
