STFU it's called Silencer and Suppressor !! they are 2 different things. say what you know and leave the one you don't....

I was careful enough to use THE phrase "OFFICIALLY CALLED" go back and see it


whatever name is given to a patent is what's it's called. Officially!

And no, they're not too different things.

#do your research and stop hating.

udatso:
your sense of humour is extraordinary

Thanks bro.

Don't forget to leave a comment on the source blog... It would put a smile on my face..

Kgdavid:
so a thread is needed to explain why the dodging of bullets in the matrix is unreal?

really??

There are so many websites in the virtual world dedicated to debunking Hollywood stunts...

Trust me if these articles don't exist... There's a high percent chance people would be practicing them..

... Then the aim of Facebook is defeated.. Hahaha

Interesting.
I love the dead Sea scrolls discovery.

We don't have an efficient group handling this tremor issues, and it is understandable because the country isn't known to experience stuffs like this.

But as its all happening now, the government should give priority to invite experts who will train the staffs of the 'whatever agency they're called' so that they can be adequately equipped mentally and physically...

elvision1:
This is cool, but am finding it hard to laugh cus it feels old skool and predictable, Dunno why sha. Maybe i've got an heightened sense of humour and uncanny ability to mentally explain jokes till they are no longer funny.

Then leave!

Thebrightest:
For your information, i am a graduate.

Sorry... You didn't act like one...

The Op really sounds like someone who went through school... He sounds refined and honest. Wishing you the best...



And to these jambites..

IkoloTheSage:
Little wonder the country is where it is today.
What the Bleep is Religions Management?

Thebrightest:
Four years wasted studying trash. What a pity!

I just hope when y'all leaving school, you would learn when/where to use the words '_fuck' and 'trash' :\

Smh...

No one. They all contributed immensely to the growth of technology.

Lalasticlala FP pls, I spent so much energy on this ...

UNIBEN Is among the universities supporting iJMB, but not many people can afford the money.

IamLukas:

I'm sure they accept iJMB, same with Cambridge... But all I'm saying is I haven't seen any. Most of my friends are Nigerians

IamLukas:

Please help somebody out.

I've not heard/seen anyone get admitted with iJMB.

What about me?

Sanchez01:
Be that as it may, i didn't lump atheists and scientists together as one. Atheists and most scientists have a lot in common, and that is 'there is no God'. And yes, you're quite right. Some scientists do believe in God.

And yet again, I'll have to highlight your statement. I think a better statement to make is that, scientists are whole less religious than 'normal' people... And the reason is obvious.

BTW, I know a lot of Dumb people... Who 'claim to be atheists'.

Sanchez01:
Scientists say there is no God and that the whole world is as a result of chemical imbalance or reactions, or whatever they propounded to satisfy their vague minds . However, we know this is God at work and man is a projection of the awesomeness of God. Science, however, explains the acts of God, but never that of chemical reactions that resulted in the formation of the world and a man. Such a huge contradiction!

The bolded is a statement that is entirely false in itself. Atheists, claim there is no God, unfortunately some Atheists are Scientists... That doesn't mean all Scientists believe in the non-existence of a supreme being.

Don't generalize.

Yes God designed it, but Science is giving us in-depth analysis of it...


I don't think there should be any fuzz about the whole thing.

XaintJoel20:
You mean Hall 3 in Uniben?

Yes

jaysparx:
What if the person uses a machine gun

LOL see question

Nice points you've got there. This is so true of Hall 3, but many students don't have a choice.

i hope wouldn't attempt to desecrate the thread

this is not the best way to invite someone into ur thread.

TheHood:
Wow... This is the best science article I've read in a very long time, So cool..

Mixing humor with education nice formula. Op keep this up, and you have the average community at your back.



Lalasticlala this should be on front page by now.

Thanks..

Harvest601:
oshey..make I sharply enter barrack and prove a point.

LOL, did you read the article? That's suicide mehn..

Thank you all for the love you've shown me so far concerning my blogposts on science, I appreciate.

StoryLine:
You just finished watching the movie-The Matrix and you're feeling so high, you practically want someone to shoot you so you could dodge the bullet. But then you have second thoughts, "let me go consult EdScienceBlog before i set out on this task".

Action!!!

You: Hey yo! I want to try out this scene...what do i need to know?

EdScienceBlog: LOL...forget about what countless hollywood movies would have you believe. Dodging a bullet fired at you is almost impossible.

You: But why?

EdScienceBlog: (remind me before the end of this meeting to explain the bolded word -'almost')
you are up against some factors, let me define them.

i Muzzle Velocity: The speed with which a bullet leaves a gun.
For modern rifles, the average muzzle velocity is about 1,200meters per second. i.e. within a second, the bullet has gotten to 1,200 meters from where it was fired. . .think about that!

ii Reaction Time: The elapsed time between the presentation of stimulus and your response to it.
The average reaction time for humans is 0.25 seconds for visual stimulus, 0.17 for audio stimulus and 0.15 seconds for touch stimulus.

so, you'll need a cue, like something to alert you, for you to react- by dodging.

something you need to note here is that, due to the muzzle velocity of the gun, it would be practically impossible for you to see the bullet leave the gun, so that strikes out relying on visual stimulus from your list.

You: So what can i rely on?

EdScienceBlog: er...we have touch stimulus there, you could rely on the sense of touch from the bullet! oh wait...you'll be dead in an instance. LOL

You: Be serious jhor... how about the sense of sound?

EdScienceBlog: Ah...yeah! there could be a possibility with that, lets see.
It is scientifically proven that the speed of sound in air is 343 meters per second. Unfortunately, the muzzle velocity of an average gun is far greater than the speed of sound, meaning the bullet would have hit you before you can even hear the gun sound. . .sorry man!

You: Wow! then imagine the shooter is using a silencer, like the type James Bond uses in movies, that means no sound at all...chai!

EdScienceBlog: Argghh!! Hollywood again!
firstly, it's officially called a SUPPRESSOR. Secondly, it doesn't make the gun as quiet as Hollywood would make you believe...but then, thats a digression.

You: hmmm...so you said i should remind you about the word 'almost'

EdScienceBlog: I did?

You: yes.

EdScienceBlog: Why?

You: I should be asking you that!

EdScienceBlog: LOL... i'm just pulling your legs.
Depending on the distance of the shooter from the shooted, one could possibly dodge a bullet. (Note; not a bullet from a sniper o!) as shown by MythBusters in one of their videos. But bear in mind that the shooter has to be very, very, very far away, and you have to react before he pulls the trigger in order for you to successfully stay alive in this experiment. How you'll achieve that. . .na you know!

You: Thanks! I think i'll look for something better to do with my life.
