Answer 1

$\huge{\tt{\red{}\green{A}\purple{N}\pink{S}\blue{W}\orange{E}\red{R}}}$

The momentum of an object, and therefore its ability to cause destruction, can be increased by making the object more massive or by making it go faster.

Although the bullet shot from a gun is light, it is shot out at a high velocity, rendering it lethal. Momentum is what makes gun-fired bullets so dangerous.

⊕ This isn't a silly question at all. This won't be heavy on the science and physics, but this is more of an education on firearms in general.

→Your first question brings up quite a few points. Bullets can be quite tiny indeed, but I'm not sure if you're talking about just handgun cartridges, rifle cartridges, or possibly both.

→Also, sometimes people say ${\underline{ \mathtt{\red{"bullet"} \green{}\mathtt\blue{} \purple{} \mathtt \orange{}\pink{}}}}\:$ when they mean${\underline{ \mathtt{\red{} \green{}\mathtt\blue{ "cartridge"} \purple{} \mathtt \orange{}\pink{}}}}\:$ and vice versa. That does make a difference, as the same bullet can be fired from a different cartridge and produce different results. I'll stick with handguns for now,

→So first you say that bullets are very tiny, and that is definitely the case with, say, a  ${\underline{ \mathtt{\red{} \green{.17 caliber }\mathtt\blue{} \purple{} \mathtt \orange{}\pink{}}}}\:$ ,   ${\underline{ \mathtt{\red{} \green{ }\mathtt\blue{} \purple{ .22 caliber-bullet,} \mathtt \orange{}\pink{}}}}\:$ or a which are only 0.17 and 0.22 inches in diameter and weigh about 1.2 grams and 2.0 grams, respectively.

→However, some bullets are much larger such as a .${\underline{ \mathtt{\red{} \green{}\mathtt\blue{} \purple{} \mathtt \orange{45 ACP}\pink{}}}}\:$ which is, you guessed it.

→0.45 inches in diameter, and closer to 13 grams on average. Some of these bullets travel slower than sound, and some can travel faster than sound depending on what gun you shoot out of, and the load inside the cartridge ${\underline{ \mathtt{\red{} \green{}\mathtt\blue{} \purple{} \mathtt \orange{}\pink{(how-much- gun-powder-is-in-each-cartridge).}}}}\:$

→ However, an average bullet speed for both weapons is in the neighborhood of  ${\underline{ \mathtt{\red{1,000} \green{}\mathtt\blue{} \purple{} \mathtt \orange{}\pink{}}}}\:$  feet per second when shot out of a handgun, or roughly the speed of sound.

→This varies a lot from firearm to firearm, depending mostly on barrel length, weight of bullet, amount of powder, and the shape of the barrel.

hope it helps
