When the triger is pulled, a pin in the barrel behind the cartridge is forced into the end of the cartridge igniting the powder charge. The ignition releases gasses under very high pressure which pushes the bullet out of the cartridge, down the barrel and to the target.
The force required to fire a 9mm bullet is generated by the gunpowder in the cartridge. When the firing pin strikes the primer, the gunpowder ignites, producing expanding gases that propel the bullet down the barrel. This force is typically measured in pounds or newtons.
No. It depends upon the bullet of course, but a handgun bullet usually won't hurt you if it hits you under those conditions. Another answer: Depends on the cartridge: Remember that this is deadly because the bullet and cartridge will go in opposite directions at great speeds. The larger the bullet and powder will determine the velocity and distance.
When a bullet is fired, the gunpowder ignites and creates hot gases that propel the bullet out of the barrel at high speeds. Friction between the bullet and the barrel also generates heat. Additionally, air resistance as the bullet travels through the air can further heat it up.
A fire makes a crackling sound when it burns.
If you fire a bullet at the same velocity you are moving (900 feet per second) in the opposite direction, the bullet will not leave the barrel, as it will essentially remain stationary relative to you. This is because the bullet's speed relative to you would be zero.
When you shoot a bullet the bullet casing pos out through the ejector and that is where the bullet is and gunpowder to fire it.
it is impossible to fire a bullet a the speed of light
No it cannot
It fires 5.7x28mm.
No, it cannot.
Various weights.
It fires a 7.62x51mm NATO bullet, which is similar to a .308 Winchester.
In most circumstances, no. The bullet is too large to chamber in the handgun.
A rifle can fire a bullet accurately to a longer range than a handgun. However, some handguns can fire a bullet just as accurately, and sometimes moreso, at certain ranges.
It is possible
If it is chambered for it.
.45 ACP
