[QUOTE="Laelkhunter, post: 1437938, member: 38154"] Isn't that where the term "foot-pounds of energy" comes from? If it generates 1000 foot-pounds of energy, that is enough energy to move 1000 pounds 1 foot? I seem to remember something like that. So if it generates more energy in foot-pounds that the target weighs, it should knock the target over? It makes my head hurt thinking about it. Someone else PLEASE explain it. [/QUOTE]
