Another good argument is that during gun training, you can inform a generally idiotic public about small things, like firing a bullet into the air means it will return to earth at the same velocity it was shot at (minus air resistance). |
That's not exactly right. The speed at which something goes up has no affect on it's speed coming down.
The bullet can only go as fast as it's terminal velocity, which gets lower and lower as it approaches the ground.
