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.
How many pounds are in 38 kg?

What caliber is a 38?
caliber 38 is a caliber 38. bullet dia. is .357 caliber deals with the dia. or measurement around the bullet head, not the bullet case.
Is 38 caliber bullet the diameter?
Close. a .38 caliber is usually closer to .357 caliber.
Can a .38 fit a 30-30 rifle?
No. The bullet is too big. A 30-30 is a .30 caliber bullet. a .38 bullet is .357 caliber
How far can a bullet fired from a .38 caliber revolver travel?
It depends on several factors, but a good rule of thumb is "about a mile."
Can you put a 38 caliber bullet in a 357 caliber revolver?
.38 Special, yes. Other .38 cartridges (such as the .38 Long Colt or .38 Super), no.
Can an automatic fire a .38 caliber or .357 caliber bullet?
Depending on what it is chamberd for, yes.
What size bullet does a 38 caliber?
38 is the size. This answer is actually correct, but more specifically, .38 special (and many of the other .38 caliber cartridges) are actually .357. The caliber ".38" was chosen to distinguish between .357 magnum and .38 special.
What firearms can fire a 38 caliber bullet?
Any that have the appropriate sized barrel
Can you distinguish between a bullet fired from a .38 caliber and one fired from a 9mm?
Yes
What caliber is a 357 magnum?
The actual bullet diameter (as well as that of the .38 Special) is .357.
Is a 357 mag a 38 caliber?
Well, yes and no. Both the .357 Magnum and the earlier .38 Special catridge both use a bullet that is .357 inches in diameter. The .38 Special in not a TRUE .38 caliber cartridge.
Can you shoot a 9 mm bullet from a .38 caliber gun?
You can from some, but they have to be designed to shoot both.
