← HistoryWhich outcome arises when rapid gunpowder deflagration occurs within early bombards?
A)Increased projectile muzzle velocity achieved✓
B)Breech-loading mechanism failure likelihood increases
C)Premature projectile cast iron melting results
D)Deliberate delaying of projectile's blast radius
💡 Explanation
Increased projectile muzzle velocity arises from rapid gunpowder deflagration because confinement boosts pressure according to pressure vessel design principles; therefore velocity rises, rather than breech failure, melting, or blast delays resulting.
