Which factor has a significant impact on a firearm's maximum projectile range?
velocity
What is a factor on a firearms maximum projectile range?
Factors include the angle at which it is fired, the speed of the projectile, its shape (ballistic coefficient) the air pressure and humidity.
What factor has a significant impact on a firearm's range?
The first factors are: Speed, weight, and shape of the projectile. Speed will be determined by the powder charge used to drive the bullet, and the length of the barrel. Elevation angle (the angle at which the barrel points upward) will then increase or decrease the range based on the first three factors. For most firearms the optimal elevation angle is between 30 and 40 degrees for maximum range. Other lesser factors include the weather (wind, humidity, temperature) and altitude. Even the Coriolis Effect can play a small factor.
What factor affects a firearm's maximum projectile range?
The weight and shape of the bullet, the speed at which the bullet leaves the gun, and the degree of tilt of the barrel above the horizontal.
What is the only factor that affects the range of a projectile?
Gravity
Is there a significant interaction when there is a significant effect for factor A and a significant effect for factor B?
no
What is the factor influence the distance and time in projectile motion?
projection speed projection angle projection height
How can calculate maximum demand load?
maximum demand load can be calculated as: # maximum demand=demand factor * Connected load or by # maximum demand = connected load * Diversity Factor Note: Demand factor and diversity factor are NOT same
What is a significant factor?
something important
How do you round 0.0556 into 1 significant factor?
0.06 beginning zeros are not significant
What is the only direction that net force is being applied to a projectile?
Projectiles in flight have two net forces acting on them. They've already been fired, so it is gravity (acting "down") and air resistance (acting "back") that are considered. There is a quirky factor called bullet rise or bullet drop that is a factor in long shots where a rotating projectile is used and a crosswind is present, but the two basic things acting on the projectile are gravity and atmospheric drag.
