Can you deflect a bullet with a knife?

Highly unlikely. Not only would your reflexes likely not cut it (see what I did there?), but the sheer power of a bullet hitting a knife should you have it in the right place would likely render the knife useless. First, remember that a common handgun bullet is moving at somewhere between 800 and 1,500 feet per second.

Can wind stop a bullet?

Head on wind is unlikely to ever stop a bullet. Side winds can blow a bullet off course but doesnt stop them. Top marksmen know how to account for wind velocity when firing. To stop a bullet you would need wind over 2700 miles per hour and that would also obliterate the world around you.

Is it possible to hit a bullet?

Yes, even deliberately. However the probability of any one bullet you fire hitting a bullet you are aiming at is very low generally speaking. This is intended as an close in anti-missile defense weapon.

Can a bullet break a sword?

If you shoot a lead bullet at a sword that is edge on, yes you can slit the bullet. The Mythbusters did it on TV and I’ve personally seen it done. If it was a jacketed bullet,it would probably not split. If shot at the flat of the blade , it could shatter the blade,specially if the bullet is FMJ.

How do snipers determine wind speed?

To do this, they use indicators in the field near their target, like drifting smoke or dust, and estimate how fast they’re moving in the wind. Some snipers may have the hand-held anemometer that calculates the wind speed more accurately, but only in their own vicinity.

Do bullets come back in a hurricane?

Assuming the bullet is fired directly into a head wind with the rifle barrel elevated +30 degrees (+30 degrees), the hurricane is too slow to have much impact on the bullet. It’ll be too far downrange for a 150 mph (241 kph) wind to reverse its course and bring it back to you.

What is the acceleration of a 3 kg sledgehammer?

Going by gut feeling, a small, 3 kg sledge head with 1m shaft weighing 700g, (just over 7.5 lbs total) will have radial acceleration of 96 meters per second squared at end speed of 12 meters per second. This produces force of 355 newtons, 12 square cm hammer head would produce 295822 pascals (newtons/sqm) of pressure.

What happens if you hit your head with a hammer?

My best guesstimate is that don’t do it. Chances of death are high, the smaller the hammer head in relation to its weight, the higher the chance of penetrative injury. Also high impact hits can damage the brain while the skull stays intact. If the head moves from the impact at high enough acceleration the brain may be bruised.

How easy is it to break a fontanelle with a hammer?

You see the Anterior fontanelle, that gap closes up as we develop as adults but the joint itself can be shattered very easily even by a closed fist and is the most likely fatal blow which can be dealt with even a light blow from a hammer. Literally a five yr old could kill you with the lightest hammer blow here from the smallest hammer.
