Ballistics

that will help reduce the possibility of injury and improve overall flexibility; ballistic and static stretches. Ballistic stretches “force the limb into an extended range of motion” through dynamic movement (Donald Kirkendall). Static stretches perform the same function of stretching out the range of motion in muscles, with primary difference being these stretches are done at rest. By combining both static and ballistic movements in a stretching routine, muscles and tendons are introduced to…

In 1959, the Cuban Missile Crisis began with the Bay of Pigs, when a guerilla warlord named Fidel Castro overthrew the current dictator of Cuba, General Fulgencio Batista. Originally, Castro promised the people of Cuba democracy, instead he instituted a socialist dictatorship. Over 100,000 Cubans fled their home with many coming to America in order to seek shelter from Castro’s regime. In April 1961, the CIA (Central Intelligence Agency) had a plan to invade Cuba using exiles as a trained Army…

Soviet cargo ships called partly delivered 42,000 Soviet soldiers along with SS four in essays five ballistic missiles .Mig fighters, light jet bombers, and antiaircraft batteries were also brought in to protect the missile sites. It would be learned years later that Soviet commander on the island GEN Pliyev had been supplied with about 100 small tactical…

The Cold War, which lasted from 1945 to 1991, was a time of extreme tensions and conflict between the United States of America and the Soviet Union. The Cold War gained its name due to the fact that though both countries built up their armies, seemingly in preparation for war, neither one directly confronted each. The differences in markets, governments, and general culture allowed tense relations between the two competing superpowers as each attempted to increase their sphere of influence. As a…

Space Co. (Lash).” Her work involved complex mathematical calculations in which she used to determine the variable elements that can and do effect missile performance. Mary G. Ross also made contributions to the designs of ballistic missiles as well. One of the major ballistic missile that Mary G. Ross worked on was Polaris, which involved launching missiles from submarines underneath the ocean. Which lead to her becoming promoted to a Research Specialist, then an advanced system engineer…

Bullets that were lodged in the victim skull were sent to ballistics to determine what type of gun was used to commit the murder, the make and model, toolmarks on the bullet casing also determine the make and model of the gun, before all this is determine the bullets must be placed in an evidence bag and then placed in an evidence locker until it is sent over to ballistics for testing. “With the exception of a shotgun, whenever a gun is fired, microscopic characteristics or imperfections are…

In World War III, who would be allies and what’s the battle lines for war ? They are so many questions by people who are curious about World War III. As I used your patience, I'll reveal the answer that I have. Is U.S and Japan are teaming up to face North Korea in World War III ? I believed that North Korea and U.S are building defense for both countries for World War III, both are doing military drills near the Korean Peninsula for preparation for World War III. Suddenly…

the movement so as not to lose control of the bar or hyperextend your elbows. If the bar, due to its momentum continues moving upward after reaching full extension, the weight being used is probably too light, and would be better suited to ballistic exercises where the resistance would be released explosively (such as medicine ball passes or bench-press throws in the Smith machine). This method can be used with a variety of rep/set schemes to fit into a typical periodization model.…

two settlements identified with atomic weapons. The cool was a long way from being done however. In actuality another legacy of the emergency was that it persuaded the soviets to build their interest in a munitions stockpile of intercontinental ballistic rockets equipped for coming to the U.S from Soviet…

In the last 35 years, 789 out of 833 people have returned to Earth on a NASA Shuttle. However, seven of the casualties were from a failed reentry of the atmosphere which occurred on February 1st, 2003 when the STS-107 Columbia burnt up and disintegrated during reentry. In this log, one will learn how a space shuttle is designed and how the trajectory a ship takes to reenter the Earth’s atmosphere safely. Space is everything, discovered known places, and also the dangerous unknown. However, when…
