Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

197 feet per second

The bullet's velocity required for skin penetration is between 148 and 197 feet per second. A velocity of less than 200 feet per second, which is easily obtained by a celebratory gunfire, is capable of fracturing bone and even causing intracranial penetration or damage to the head .
