Ammunition is a military term for the projectile and propellant. The term is also used for explosives (cheap ammo). Cartridges are munitions, ie consisting of a casing containing propellant charge and detonating cap and a fitted projectile. Ammunition is used in weapons in size from guns with a caliber of 2 mm (called Hummingbird), machine guns, rifles and machine guns and up to 105 mm howitzer or recoilless gun.
Grenades are ammunition in form of projectiles that are typically fired from weapons such as grenade launchers, guns or mortars, or they may be hand grenades thrown by hand. Modern shells are filled with high explosives and detonate usually when they hit the target. Some types can set to explode with delay, Sometime after they have taken the target (from fractions of a second up to several days).
Again, m is the mass of ball and its speed v. Speed has no more influence on the decline munition developed by mass. Note that the momentum felt from the ball is similar and even greater if we take into account the friction that slow the ball on its way to printed target. In short, it only in movies where a shot shotgun propels its target three meters back. A weapon with ammunition would develop such momentum would suffer the same fate to shooter.
At the momentum of ball thus in a sense corresponds to weapon it went off, the same quantity of motion in opposite direction. V1equals m1 m2 v2 where m1 and v1 are the mass and speed of ball, those m2 v2 of weapon. The latter, being much heavier than the ball acquires a much lower speed, but significant: it corresponds to decrease. For a given weapon, a heavier bullet will create more distance; ammunition equal to each other, a heavier weapon present a smaller decline.
The most important characteristic of a firearm ammunition for which it chambered. It determines the caliber of weapon. The weight of ball and the amount of powder determine the power of ammunition and the recoil of weapon. The following chapters explain why modern munitions tend to be a lighter and faster than the older munitions lower caliber.
The projectile itself may be hollow and filled with an explosive device equipped with a pyrotechnic firing (detonator react to impact or delayed), projecting shrapnel, bullets (round shot shrapnel shells) and more recently munitions. In case of chemical or biological weapons, the projectile could be filled with chemical agents or toxic pathogens, becoming toxic gases or contaminants in explosion on impact.
For reasons of safety and danger, military munitions are stored in places called ammunition depot. The first gun fired simple stones or iron shot recovered in forges (before it was banned). Spherical balls were quickly invented cast in lead and lead alloy of antimony and arsenic to harden. The powder was first charged separately by mouth of gun or gun or cannon.
Century until the nineteenth century, it was necessary to calepiner rifle bullets, that is to say, wrap in a piece of cotton cloth or greased paper (cartridge) to ensure the best performance possible shooting better adjusting the projectile to bore by reducing gaps (wind) through which gases escape instead of pushing the ball, and to increase the rate of fire.
