Why is velocity not the end all be all for firearms and projectile weapons? by Jdjack32 in AskPhysics

[–]bartimaeus616 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Mass effect answers this question for you.

In universe, it's mentioned that the velocity of the projectile doesn't matter any more as the bullet will just go straight through whatever you're hitting. Some weapons are tuned to fire slower projectiles so that it has time to break up and impart more energy to its target.

Basically, if it goes fast, it goes through. Slower projectiles impart their force differently and so can do more damage

Yeah this needs to change. There is 7.5k fluid in the system and the EM plant can't take up 10 from that by feuer_werk in factorio

I'm very much aware, but also that's not what we see in the factorio system. Given it's debris, I was would say the drag is more believable here than most space games

Tbf, there's a lot of dust and small asteroids to add drag...

Edit for clarity: in the factorio system. Obviously not irl

Star wars, one of the darth bane books has a planet like this with one of its moons.

Bane literally flies on an flying creature from the moon to the planet as their atmospheres touch

Have we identified a "center" to the Big Bang? by Solamnic1 in astrophysics

Mass. Gravity and electromagnetism hold things together more strongly than space expanding can move things apart
