Found out the equation for force...

[platinummatt!]

Or something... say if you had a car crash. So it must go with boxing aswell.
It's (1/2xmass) x (velocity squared) also I was told speed is more important

Do this in metres per second and kilogrammes

so ten kilogrammes of mass at 1 metre per second

half of ten kilogrammes = 5 kilogrammes. 1 squared is 1 so 5 x 1 = 5. So 5 killogrammes of force ( Ithink it was force)

The most important part of that equation is the end unit.

Are you sure it is Kilogrammes and not PSI or any of the other units that it possibly could be?

[platinummatt!]

Well I think its killogrammes... because its metric and PSI is pounds. My science teacher told me. Although, the laws of physics have other ones involving accelaeration and mass being gained

[46and2]

Force = mass times acceleration, i.e. F = m*a. It's Newton's second law of motion. Force in this case is measured in Newtons, or kilogram meters/second^2 (i.e. kg m/s^2).




What you gave is the equation for kinetic energy, which is measured in joules. Ek = 1/2*m*v^2

[platinummatt!]

How can it be mass X acceleration.? it doesnt give the speed its travelling

Force is the rate of change of momentum versus time. It's not defined in terms of constant speed. I think you are thinking of momentum, which is mass times velocity. The following article might help.

[eazy_mas]

that equation is for knetic energy.

[esponda]

that equation is for knetic energy.

yep, thats right

the energy of the movement


and dude, what the hell with this, when u box ur not going to think, "ok, i will trow mi next jab at 25 m/sec, so com on....

[Kayo]

**** this math bull**** i punch them in the face they fall down

[hemichromis]

i'm not a big fan of these equations because there are so many that apply to a punch
you have impulse, momentum force PSI as far as i'm, concerned if my fist lands on the heavy bak and makes a snapping thud i know its strong and quick
