Synopsis "Ballistic Formulas"
Ballistic Formulas by Alex Edward Samuel Green is a comprehensive guide to the science of ballistics. This book is designed to provide readers with an in-depth understanding of the principles and formulas that govern the behavior of projectiles in flight. The author has included a wide range of topics in the book, from basic concepts such as velocity, acceleration, and trajectory to more advanced topics like wind drift, spin stabilization, and terminal ballistics.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which covers a different aspect of ballistics. The first chapter provides an introduction to the subject and explains the basic principles of ballistics. The second chapter covers the different types of projectiles and their characteristics, while the third chapter discusses the factors that affect projectile flight, such as air resistance, gravity, and wind.The fourth chapter of the book is focused on external ballistics, which deals with the behavior of projectiles in flight. This chapter includes detailed discussions of trajectory, range estimation, and wind drift, among other topics. The fifth chapter covers the subject of spin stabilization, which is an important aspect of modern ballistics.The sixth chapter of the book is dedicated to terminal ballistics, which deals with the behavior of projectiles upon impact. This chapter includes discussions of bullet expansion, penetration, and fragmentation, as well as the effects of different types of ammunition on targets.Overall, Ballistic Formulas is an essential reference for anyone interested in the science of ballistics. The author has done an excellent job of explaining complex concepts in a clear and concise manner, and the book is filled with useful formulas, diagrams, and illustrations that help readers understand the subject matter. Whether you are a firearms enthusiast, a hunter, or a military professional, this book is sure to be a valuable addition to your library.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
