← HistoryWhich outcome increases with early bamboo-barreled gunpowder weapons?
A)Premature bursting risk✓
B)Ignition timing accuracy
C)Muzzle velocity consistency
D)Effective range extension
💡 Explanation
Early crossbow arrows used bamboo, because rapid propellant deflagration generates extreme pressures, therefore premature bursting risk increases rather than achieving controlled shot outcome; different materials offered better mechanical bounds.
