Ballistic is the part of sciense that studies the behavior ,flight and effects of proyectils like bullets , gravity bombs and rockets .
Is also divided in 2 groups , Gun Ballistic and Forensic ballistic each one have a different function and is use for different porpouses , here are the caracteristics of each one
Gun Ballistic: is the one that studies the time of bullet flight to the impact in the target and is divided in the categories below
Internal ballistics (sometimes called interior ballistics): the study of the processes originally accelerating the projectile, for example the passage of a bullet through the barrel of a rifle
Transition ballistics (sometimes called intermediate ballistics): the study of the projectile's behavior when it leaves the barrel and the pressure behind the projectile is equalized.
External ballistics (sometimes called exterior ballistics): the study of the passage of the projectile through a medium, most commonly earth's atmosphere.
Terminal ballistics: the study of the interaction of a projectile with its target, whether that be flesh (for a hunting bullet), steel (for an anti-tank round), or even furnace slag (for an industrial slag disruptor).
Forensic Ballistic : is the one that is in charge to detrminatie and study the bullets or bullet impact in the scene of a crime in order to show its results to the court or to every other legal system to be used in a crime invastigation.

Hi Daniel!
ResponderEliminarThis blog is just great. I didn’t know anything about this. I thought that ballistic was about collecting weapons. Maybe I should keep visiting your blog.
I didn’t know that there were two types of ballistic. You just say that there was a forensic ballistic. I think that most of the police’s cases, there is somebody investigating about the weapon that they used in a murder or rob. Anyway, good luck in this blog.
