Aug 26, 2023 at 21:27 comment added Feryll @BobBixler Have you solved for a closed-form expression, or is an answer like dipodomys the best solution you have in mind?

Aug 24, 2023 at 14:01 comment added Bob Bixler This goes on for 10 seconds so there's a maximum possible of 10 bullets.
Aug 24, 2023 at 2:20 comment added Dmitry Kamenetsky and how many seconds does this go for? Otherwise you would have an infinite number and they can't all dissapear.
Aug 24, 2023 at 2:20 comment added Dmitry Kamenetsky thanks @Prem, it makes sense now.
Aug 23, 2023 at 12:25 comment added Prem I stared long & hard @ the Question , thinking the Same what you are asking , @DmitryKamenetsky , until I figured out that a faster bullet will catch up with a slower bullet , travelling along the Same line. OP should include that Point in the Question Post itself : It will be better & It will save time to others !
Aug 22, 2023 at 16:22 comment added Dmitry Kamenetsky when and how do bullets collide if they are fired from one gun??
Aug 22, 2023 at 5:47 comment added Moti Seems like a math problem. Puzzle?

Aug 19, 2023 at 11:35 comment added Bob Bixler Yes, no bullets could be fired as part of the "all bullets disappeared" case.
Aug 19, 2023 at 9:08 comment added acrabb3 Do you consider the case where no bullets are fired as part of the "all bullets disappeared" case?
