Muzzle velocity will vary, depending on whether fired from a rifle, revolver, or semi-automatic pistol- and on the loading of THAT particular cartridge. A .38 Special wadcutter target load fired from a 4 inch bbl revolver will reach about 690 feet per second. A +P+ (high energy load) fired from a 6" revolver may reach 1100 fps.
What else can I help you with?
If someone fires a 110 grain 38 caliber bullet straight up at 300 meters per s how high will the bullet rise how fast will it be going when it hits the ground?
If mechanical energy is conserved (like, if you did this on the Moon, where there is practically no air), when the bullet gets back to the ground it must have the same speed with which it started out. In practice, it will be less, due to air resistance.
What is difference between 380 caliber and 38 caliber?
One would think that .380 ACP and .38 Special would be the same size--namely 38-hundredths of an inch. But there can be some flexibility in stated caliber and actual caliber. Long story short, .380 ACP is the same diameter as a 9mm, roughly .355 caliber. .38 Special is basically .357 caliber.
How can you find the velocity in meters per secound of a baseball thrown 38 m from third basse to first base in 1.7s?
Well the equation D=RT is how you get the distance an object will travel in the allotted time at the rate of travel. The distance is 38, and the time is 1.7, but you don't know the rate of travel. So, D/T=R is how you find the rate of travel. 38/1.7 = 22.352 m/s horizontal velocity.
How much does a bullet slow down after being fired?
A bullet hardly slows down at all after being fired. While bullets come in a variety of shapes, sizes and weights, they are all failry aerodynamic and thus minimally impacted by the wind resistance (friction). A bullet's primary enemy is actually gravity. Once fired, it is a matter of time before gravity pulls the bullet crashing down into the earth...assuming it does not strike something first. While a high powered rifle will send a bullet farther and faster than a .38 pistol, fired from the same height, at the same trajectory over level ground, they will have almost identical hang times. Again, the faster bullet will simply go farther. The speed loss for any bullet, (buck shot not included) is negligible. It will strike the ground or object in its way with almost the same speed as when it was fired no matter how far away it is. This is of course excluding shots in the air where there is little horizontal movement and the trajectory is mostly verticle. Here, obvioulsy, gravity will take over and the bullet will ultimately fall back to the ground at the terminal velocity - much slower than muzzle velocity.
