  2. Muzzle energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muzzle_energy

    For example, in Denmark rifle ammunition used for hunting the largest types of game there such as red deer must have a kinetic energy E 100 (i.e.: at 100 m (110 yd) range) of at least 2,700 J (2,000 ft⋅lbf) and a bullet mass of at least 9 g (140 gr) or alternatively an E 100 of at least 2,000 J (1,500 ft⋅lbf) and a bullet mass of at least ...

    ME: Muzzle energy, in foot-pounds; P: Momentum, in pound (force) (lbf) times seconds. [1] A guide to the recoil from the cartridge, and an indicator of bullet penetration potential. The .30-06 Springfield (at 2.064 lbf-s) is considered the upper limit for tolerable recoil for inexperienced rifle shooters. [2] Chg: Propellant charge, in grains

  6. Foot-pound (energy) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foot-pound_(energy)

    The foot-pound force (symbol: ft⋅lbf, [1] ftlb f, [2] or ftlb [3]) is a unit of work or energy in the engineering and gravitational systems in United States customary and imperial units of measure. It is the energy transferred upon applying a force of one pound-force (lbf) through a linear displacement of one foot.

  7. Free recoil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_recoil

    Free recoil / Frecoil is a vernacular term or jargon for recoil energy of a firearm not supported from behind. Free recoil denotes the translational kinetic energy (E t) imparted to the shooter of a small arm when discharged and is expressed in joules (J), or foot-pound force (ft·lb f) for non-SI units of measure.

  8. Joule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joule

    The joule (/ dʒ uː l / JOOL, or / dʒ aʊ l / JOWL; symbol: J) is the unit of energy in the International System of Units (SI). [1] In terms of SI base units , one joule corresponds to one kilogram - square metre per square second (1 J = 1 kg⋅m 2 ⋅s −2 ).

    The thermochemical calorie is exactly 4.184 J by definition of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). [4] The thermochemical Btu is calculated by converting from grams to pounds and from Celsius to Fahrenheit. [5] 59 °F (15.0 °C) ≈1,054.80 [6] Used for American natural gas pricing. [3] 60 °F (15.6 °C) ≈1,054.68 [7]
