characteristics and fighting styles, blacksmiths had to cast weapons that met their specifications. Additionally, the knights needed to be capable of using a plethora of weapons since each had a specific purpose for different scenarios such as using projectile weapons for ranged combat. In order to best serve their king, they had to use their weapons skillfully and effectively. To achieve this, the knights had to know multiple weapon techniques and fighting styles to help them outsmart or outmaneuver
many people may have shot a firearm of some sort, few of those people actually realize how much physics is involved with the shot. So what exactly is Ballistics? Ballistics is the science or study of the motion of projectiles and in the case of most firearms, these projectiles are the bullets. There are two things that affect the flight of a bullet once it has been shot out of the gun. These things are the drag of air on the bullet and the force of gravity acting upon the bullet. The force
crimp to ensure the projectile is secured during it's employment.
catapult will be effective at launching a ping pong ball the farthest distance with the same exact force every try. Newton's first law applies to the catapult. When the arm of the catapult springs up to launch, it has a change in motion which makes the projectile move. Inertia also applies to a catapult. The launch angle is is the angle of the launch of the ping pong
INTRODUCTION A taxi driver was killed during a night robbery in Columbia, South Carolina. Out of this rather ordinary crime, it had been boxed up for nearly four decade until 1997, when the sheriff department created a cold case squad. In 1961, John Orner was shot three times in the head because the suspect tried to remove any money from Orner’s taxi. Following morning, the bloodstained taxi was found abandoned within the streets of Columbia. Through ballistics evidence found in John Orner’s head
What is a projectile? In “what is a projectile” (Physics Classroom, 2015), a projectile is a moving object and the only force acting upon it is gravity. The actual path of a projectile could vary according to the position and direction of the launch of the projectile. The image ‘types of projectiles’ (2015) shows three types of projectiles. P1 is the projectile which has the movement only in vertical direction while P2 has more vertical and a little horizontal motion thus moving in two dimensions
Weapons of the American Civil War Amongst the most lasting of factors stemming from the Civil War are the weapons that were developed. Before the Civil War, the weapons used were highly unreliable, and were not advanced enough to provide the needed defense for a young nation such as our own. Innovative minds created many interesting ways to demolish their enemies without ever having to fire a shot or go into full combat through different types of bombs that were in disguise. Among the advancements
Police v. Guns on the Streets My research paper is that people should focus on the streets that are mainly weapons, kids carrying toy guns replica from a real gun will be mistakenly the targets getting killed by police officer 's. People have not realized that guns are the major causes of death. Against fellow police officers. it has showed that since the shooting of Oscar Grant and Michael Brownl increase the killings of police officers shot by a real or a toy replica gun. Police are basically putting
To begin, it is much easier to list the benefits of technology. Some of these benefits are easy to point out and seem relatively obvious; cars, planes, cell phones, and a multitude of other electronic devices that serve us in our day to day lives. But technology is not simply the material products that we use. Technology helps us in the background of our lives by simplifying means of production, providing us with things oft taken for granted. Consider our chairs, our buildings, our streets, our clothes
through the air it may look impressive, but it is extremely difficult. To understand the physics of tumbling, we look towards projectile motion, gravity, and force. While watching a person tumble it is easy to see why projectile motion has a very big role in tumbling. Projectile motion is the form of motion in which an object falls towards earth after being thrown. Projectile
