"A small charge of Oxygen in the barrel." How is that oxygen supposed to get into a sealed brass cartrige?
And think about how much oxygen, in gaseous form, it would take to oxidize all the carbon and sulfur in a volume of gunpowder. Do the math on that: it will be hundreds of times the volume of the powder itself. The best thing to fill a cartrige with is gunpowder.
I posted the wikipedia link; didn't you read it? The oxygen for combustion comes from the potassium nitrate.
Google "powder load density" Most people seem to think that 100% fill is best, and apparently military ammo is usually 100%.
That is astonishing. There have to be some intense, hardwired distortions of reality for someone to be, literally, always wrong. Mere stupidity isn't enough.
He's an angry 7-year old (maybe as old as eleven), probably an abuse victim, who his using his sister's computer to rant at everything because he has no clue how to deal with the denied rage and pain and suffering of merciless abuse.
I used to do re-loads, John. Have you EVER re-loaded anything?
Your stupidity certainly is.
Get it right, john. The charge of oxygen was for the cannon in space. A cannon would not have a cartridge. The cartridge was to illustrate how modern ballistics are done with small caliber projectiles.
Again, you show your inability to read correctly, much less remember what you occasionally successfully do read.
It only needs to burn for the milliseconds of projectile travel through the barrel, idiot.
You ain't real bright about explosive events, John. Much less guns or ballistics.
Even here the bullet is long gone before the propellant is burned, if it ever all gets burned at all.
Please do so, and point the resulting device at your head and release the mechanism that makes it chemically react, to send the projectile through your thick skull, if that is even possible.
I read it, John. What you failed to read, and even obviously completely ignored is the fact that cartridges are not completely filled, regardless of what the penniño childtard said.
Nice job of waiting for some idiot to back up your stupidity before returning to increase it. Too bad you're busted. Stupid is as stupid is, and you is stupid, John "Penninño Lover" Larkin..
You really do not know much about gunpowder, do you, John?
It isn't really a 'powder', per se. They do not use old camera man flash powder in guns.
Ever heard of 'head space' in pressure vessel circles?
"Taking it into account" means shedding it. Getting to the Sun requires close to zero angular momentum with respect to the Sun.
In this case, the merry-go-round is spinning you about 30 times faster than the muzzle velocity of a rifle. Go ahead: work out the possible trajectories of the bullet under that constraint.
It doesn't matter where you build the (nuclear power) plant, people will move there. Then you have a population center that will only grow while the plant operates. Not to mention others will build other kinds of plants nearby just because there is a workforce there. In due time it becomes a city. It has happened many thousands^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H millions of times all over the world.
In an emergency, San Onofre will shutdown I-5 and the coast between San Diego and Santa Barbara and beyond. It was a 50 years old mistake (and 30 years old renewal) to have the reactors right at the water. We can't fix that now and we don't really want to shut it down. Just let it run it course for 10 more years. However, lower (relatively speaking) radiative wastes will be there for decades/centuries well beyond its active life. We need to start moving the nuclear waste to less populated area, higher and more stable ground. No reason for people to move to radiative storage site.
Shall we, the people of California, authorize the relocation of nuclear wastes away from sites, including but not limited to, San Onofre and Diablo Canyon
Would not 100 kW be more like 150 hp rather than 150,000 hp? I would buy need for 200 hp rather than 150, to cover generator and extension cord losses and my kiester.
Or, do you think sufficiently large will need more than 100 kW?
