[QUOTE="AJ Peacock, post: 177500, member: 4885"] What force are you talking about that causes the nose to follow the trajectory? I don't recall you enlightening us about it. CatShooter didn't say "it turns left" he said that if a force were applied (as you suggest), it 'would turn left', which it doesn't, therefore there is NO force applied as you surmise. Please enlighten us, Isaac, Julian and I await your explanation of this mythical force that pushes up on the tail of the bullet exactly in line with the arc of trajectory (or is it pushing down on the nose). And please explain to us, how it doesn't push the bullet to the left (assuming a CW rotation), as I would have assumed that the right hand rule and conservation of momentum (rotational in this case) should still apply. I'm also curious, why those long passes that Peyton Manning throws, don't all come down nose first? Or does this law only apply to bullets? What about evil kneivel, why didn't his motorcycle follow the arc of trajectory? If I remember correctly, his motorcycle tended to stay in pretty much the same attitude it left the ramp? I humbly await your explanations. AJ [/QUOTE]
