  2. Muzzle velocity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muzzle_velocity

    For projectiles in unpowered flight, its velocity is highest at leaving the muzzle and drops off steadily because of air resistance.Projectiles traveling less than the speed of sound (about 340 m/s (1,100 ft/s) in dry air at sea level) are subsonic, while those traveling faster are supersonic and thus can travel a substantial distance and even hit a target before a nearby observer hears the ...

  3. Power factor (shooting sports) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_factor_(shooting_sports)

    The imperial unit kilograin foot per second (kgr⋅ft/s). "Grain foot per second" (gr·ft/s) can be obtained by measuring the mass in grains (gr) (7,000 to the pound) and velocity in feet per second (ft/s), but since their product yields a very large number it is common to multiply by a factor of 1 ⁄ 1000, obtaining the power factor in kilo ...

  4. Windows Insider - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Insider

    Windows Insider is an open software testing program by Microsoft that allows users globally who own a valid license of Windows 11, Windows 10, [1] [2] or Windows Server [3] [4] to register for pre-release builds of the operating system previously only accessible to software developers.

  5. Microsoft Excel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Excel

    Excel 2.0 for Windows, which was modeled after its Mac GUI-based counterpart, indirectly expanded the installed base of the then-nascent Windows environment. Excel 2.0 was released a month before Windows 2.0, and the installed base of Windows was so low at that point in 1987 that Microsoft had to bundle a runtime version of Windows 1.0 with ...

  6. Muzzle energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muzzle_energy

    Pellet exiting muzzle, with formula for energy overlaid.. Muzzle energy is the kinetic energy of a bullet as it is expelled from the muzzle of a firearm. Without consideration of factors such as aerodynamics and gravity for the sake of comparison, muzzle energy is used as a rough indication of the destructive potential of a given firearm or cartridge.

  8. Ballistic pendulum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ballistic_pendulum

    We can now use momentum conservation for the bullet-pendulum system to get the speed of the bullet, , before it struck the pendulum. Equating the momentum of the bullet before it impacts the pendulum to that of the bullet-pendulum system as soon as the bullet strikes the pendulum (and using v 1 = 2 ⋅ g ⋅ h {\displaystyle v_{1}={\sqrt {2 ...

  9. Subsonic ammunition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subsonic_ammunition

    In this instance, heavier bullets are loaded in standard ammunition, which reduces muzzle velocity below the speed of sound. As an example, the very common 9×19mm Parabellum standard military round is a 7.5 g (116 gr) bullet at velocities typically around 360 m/s (1,200 ft/s). Subsonic loads for 9×19mm Parabellum commonly use 9.5 g (147 gr ...
