What else can I help you with?
A rifle is shot straight up and the bullet leaves the barrel at a speed of 245 miles per second How long will it take the bullet to hit the ground?
Assuming no air resistance, the time for the bullet to hit the ground will be approximately 228 seconds, or about 3 minutes and 48 seconds. This is calculated by using the formula t = 2*v/g, where v is the initial velocity of the bullet and g is the acceleration due to gravity.
What is the Difference between muzzle velocity and recoil velocity?
Muzzle velocity is the velocity of a bullet as it leaves the firearm's barrel, while recoil velocity is the backward momentum that the firearm experiences when the bullet is fired. Muzzle velocity determines the bullet's speed and trajectory, while recoil velocity affects the shooter's ability to control the firearm during and after firing.
Define trAjectory of the bullet velocity of the bullet velocity?
Bullet trajectory is the path the bullet travels once it leaves the barrel. Bullets travel on a long arch and cross the line of sight twice. Once shortly after leaving the barrel and once again on target assuming the sights are properly zeroed. This is the trajectory of the bullet. Bullet velocity is the speed at which the bullet is traveling along it's trajectory.
When a rifle is fired horizontally the bullet leaves the barrel and doesnt drop at all for the first 35 meters of flight Is this true?
No, this statement is not true. When a rifle is fired horizontally, the bullet immediately begins to drop due to gravity as soon as it leaves the barrel. The rate of drop will depend on the muzzle velocity of the bullet and the distance it has traveled.
If you are traveling at the speed of a bullet and then fired a bullet in the opposite direction what happens?
1). Your speed in the forward direction should increase somewhat, since the recoil of the shot adds to your momentum. 2). The bullet you fire in the reverse direction leaves the muzzle with full muzzle velocity and momentum in the reverse direction ... in your frame of reference. Viewed by an observer in the stationary frame of reference ... the one in which you are moving at the speed of a bullet ... the one you fire just dribbles out of the muzzle and falls straight to the ground.

If a pistol is held close to a target will the bullet not have time to acceerate to max velocity?
A bullet reaches it's maximum velocity at the instant it leaves the muzzle of the gun. Once it leaves the gun, it begins to slow- it CANNOT get faster. So the answer to your question is no.
Speed of projectile as it leaves a firearm?
Known as the muzzle velocity, it is the fastest speed the bullet will have in flight.

Bullet velocity is the speed at which the bullet is traveling along it's trajectory.
What is the formula for muzzle velocity?
No specific formula. MV is the speed that a bullet is moving when it leaves the muzzle of a firearm. It is measured. Variables that affect it include bullet weight, size, powder charge, composition of the bullet, and length of barrel.
What are the purpose of rifling in the gun?
The purpose is to make the bullet spin as it leaves the rifle. The spin makes the bullet travel in a straight line, and allows for accurate shooting at longer distances.
When a rifle is fired horizontally the bullet leaves the barrel and doesnt drop at all for the first 35 meters of flight Is this true?
No, this statement is not true. When a rifle is fired horizontally, the bullet immediately begins to drop due to gravity as soon as it leaves the barrel. The rate of drop will depend on the muzzle velocity of the bullet and the distance it has traveled.
How long does it take a bullet to reach a human body?
That's going to depend on the muzzle velocity of the bullet as it leaves the gun, the distance between the shooter and the intended victim, and on how fast the intended victim turns and runs.

How far can you shoot a 12 gauge gun until the bullet starts to drop?
Due to gravity, the bullet starts to drop the second it leaves the barrel. You can calculate the drop by factoring mass and velocity with gravity (9.8 m/s²).
What makes a bullet spin?
The barrel of the gun has lands and grooves (grooves and ridges) cut in a spiral. The bullet molds to these and starts to spin as it moves down the barrel. The bullet just continues to spin after it leaves the barrel.Correct. The ridges are known as 'lands'. It is possible to calculate how fast a bullet will spin if you know the twist rate of the barrel and the velocity of the bullet. My AR15 has a twist rate of 1-in-8 ie for every eight inches the bullet travels down the barrel, the bullet is rotated once. It fires a .223 round at approx 2,800 feet per second so... The formula is (bullet velocity x 720)/twist rate so... (2,800x720)/8 is an incredible 252,000RPM!
