How do hollow-point bullets work?
The hollow in the tip of the bullet allows soft tissue to enter into the bullet causing rapid expantion.
The hole in the center of the bullet allows for the bullet to expand to a wider diameter upon impact. Thusfore causing greater damage to the target
A hollow point has a pit or hollowed out shape in its tip, generally intended to cause the bullet to expand upon entering a target in order to decrease penetration and disrupt more tissue as it travels through the target. They are also used to control penetration, such as in situations where over penetration could cause collateral damage (such as on an airplane). Jacketed hollow points (JHPs) or plated hollow points are covered in a coating of harder metal to increase bullet strength and to prevent fouling the barrel with lead stripped from the bullet. The term hollow-cavity bullet is used to describe a hollow point where the hollow is unusually large, sometimes dominating the volume of the bullet, and causes extreme expansion or fragmentation on impact.
How close is a bullet when you hear the whizzing sound of it passing by?
The whizzing is the sound of the bullet cutting through the air very quickly, it also denotes rotation in the projectile. The sound is audible to the human ear within a distance of 2 Meters or 6 feet. The heavier the whizzing the closer the bullet.
First the answer
If you fire the gun on Earth then no, the bullet comes back down slower than it left.
Now for the physics which explains the answer.
The simplest way to look at this question is probably to use conservation of Energy. You could arrive at the same answer using Newton's laws but it becomes involved. First less us consider firing the gun in a vacuum. The kinetic energy (movement energy) of the bullet when it leaves the gun is gradually converted into gravitational potential energy as it moves up and slows down. Eventually it reaches its highest point and stops. It has zero kinetic energy, all the energy has been converted into gravitational potential. The bullet then starts to fall under gravity. The gravitational potential energy is converted back into kinetic energy. No energy is lost so the bullet arrives back where it started with the same kinetic energy it left with or to put it another way at the same speed it left. If you tried this on Earth it would not happen. The bullet would be subject to air resistance (friction from the air) on the way up. Some of the kinetic energy would be converted into gravitational potential, some would be lost heating the surrounding air. The same would happen on the way down, some energy would be lost. The bullet would arrive back moving more slowly than it left.
An alternate way of looking at it is to use the concept of terminal velocity. It is not as compete from a physics point of view but it may be easier to understand. The bullet, once at the top of the trajectory has no energy left from the gun, all of the energy from that point forward comes from gravity. Any object falling in a gas (like the atmosphere of Earth) can only reach a certain speed, its terminal velocity before the friction from the surrounding gas is equal to the force from gravity. This speed is called terminal velocity. It is determined by the size, shape and mass of an object. The terminal velocity for a bullet is likely significantly less than the muzzle velocity.
What happens to k.e. of a bullet when ita penetrates into a target?
When the bullet penetrates into an object its velocity decreases very much or becomes 0 suddenly. This causes a change a momentum of bullet and impulse is applied. Technically the kinetic energy is converted to potential as a deformation occurs inside that object, transferring some of the kinetic energy into the object.
Do they sell ammo energy drink in Canada?
Almost 40% of teens in North America consume an energy drink daily. Over and above this, the Baby Boomers drink them to keep up with the fast paced life (most baby boomers are unable to retire at an early age) . I am at the tail end of the baby boomers and was a red bull fan until I ran into some health problems with my heart. I was banned from drinking Red Bull or any other energy drink. Another large consumer group associated with drinking energy drinks are Athletes or anyone involved sports.The problem with the energy drinks you buy at retail is they are not healthy and a crash follows a couple of hours after consumption.
A few weeks ago I was introduced to a new healthy energy drink Xowii. I of course thought there would be no way I would be permitted to drink this. To my surprise I was told it was fine, go ahead. This cannot be bought at retail which was a bit frustrating so after some research I contacted XowiiNorth America. www.xowiinorthamerica.com
I have now been consuming Xowii Energy daily and feel great. Although I am still tired recovering from surgery and am not feeling half as fatigued.
There has been absolutely no crash from drinking Xowii.
What the difference between a hollow point and a regular point bullet?
Hollow Point bullets have a hollow nose or an hole in the nose of the bullet. This causes the bullet to mushroom into a larger diameter when it hits something. A regular bullet is conical or blunt nose in shape. Some can be pure lead or can be jacketed with a bronze or copper coating.
