you can protect yourself from a bullet by diving underwater. If the shooter were directly overhead, you would probably be safe from most guns at 8 ft. At a 30 degree angle, you would only have to be 3 ft underwater to be safe.

Is water faster than a bullet?
Yes
When cooking and salt is placed in the water and the water stops boiling give a reason for this phenomenon?
When the salt dissolves in the water it raises the water's boiling temperature, so it stops boiling.
Do the sun's tanning rays penetrate water and to what degree?
All the sun's rays penetrate water, but each color penetrates to a different depth. The colors at the upper end of the light spectrum, especially the UV (ultraviolet) that causes tanning, penetrate deepest. The UV portion of the sun's light can penetrate into clear water for a hundred feet or more at midday. The safest way to avoid overexposure is to remember that if you can see the sunlight, it may cause sunburn, and to limit exposure accordingly or perhaps wear a T-shirt or wet-suit.
What will happen if the water wouldn't evaporate and the water cycle stops working?

Could Sometimes the water cycle stops this is true or false?
No
How far will a bullet form a 30 caliber machine gun travel under water?
Only a few feet. Water slows and stops bullets rather effectively.
What is water clarity?
Water clarity is a measure of the amount of sunlight that can penetrate through the water
What kind of tissue can an ultrasound penetrate?
It penetrates water very well and soft tissues to variable degrees. It does not penetrate bone.

What types of molecules can penetrate the stratum corneum?

Can nuclear radiation penetrate plastic water bottles?

Why is it hard for headlight beams to penetrate a thick fog?
Fog is in essence tiny water particles. The light goes into a straight line as long as there are no objects colliding with it. However, water not only stops the light particles, it refracts them, causing the light to go in every direction except straight ahead.
What happens when a bullet hits water?
Depends on the angle at which the bullet hits the water. At a shallow angle (less than 45 degrees) the bullet may bounce off the water, just as if it had hit a hard surface. At more direct angles, the bullet will splash, and may be deflected from a straight path. It will stop fairly quickly due to the resistance of the water.
Is water faster than a bullet?
Yes
What happens to the sediments when the wind stops blowing or water stops moving?
deposition
When cooking and salt is placed in the water and the water stops boiling give a reason for this phenomenon?

What colors are more likely to penetrate to the bottom of a lake?
The colors that are the first to not penetrate are the warm colors like red, orange and yellow. Depending on the depth of the water, green, blue and lastly violet are the most likely to penetrate the bottom of a lake.
