- In my old ballistics bible ("Jagdtballistik" by Walther Lampel)
- another factor is introduced (which probably is a derivative of
- the factors mentioned above) namely the force/time relationship.
- Eg: A recoil situation with average force f acting on the shooters
- shoulder (eyebrow?) during time t appears to be far more comfortable
- than a situation where force 2*f acts during time t/2 despite the
- fact that the work performed is the same in both cases.
