ballistics
the study of bullet projectiles and forensics for a crime scene
In general, ballistics is the science or study of the properties of projectiles, or science of designing bullets and cartridges.
Projectiles can move upward or downward or at an angle to the vertical. The only force on a projectile is gravity.
In the microworld the study of motion is called mechanics or classical mechanics. The study of the motion of particles in the microworld of atoms and nuclei is called quantum mechanics.

projectiles can be fin or spin stabilized
Shrapnel invented the type of artillery shell that has weak seams in between thicker sections so that when the shell burst it broke in the right places to form many projectiles. Prior to this the shells had uniform thickness so the number and size of the projectiles could not be accurately predicted before detonation. Basically it can kill more people because it has more projectiles when it detonates. For this reason most projectiles formed after detonation are called shrapnel in the creators name.
No. 38 = .357 projectiles; 380 = .355 projectiles from a shorter case
The scientific study of plants is called botany. People who study botany are called botanists.

Ballistic (in German Ballistische) is the study of the dynamics of projectiles or missiles and the internal workings of firearms. It is also a slang word that means to become very angry.
