Well I saw a show on the HISTORY channel (humor!) and they say.....
Like I stated, I only have remedial physics, but I distinctly remember not only learning this in school (I was an undergrad for 8 years, 2 full majors, one history, 3 minors and if I told you how many credits I finally graduated with you would pass out from laughter). Taken plenty of classes since too, all now unrelated to the industry I work in, heh. I also watch way too much of these shows and I crack up at how inaccruate most are (but entertaining, its like pizza, even if its bad, its good).
I wouldn't put too much into wiki-fu, but I'm sure I know less here than you guys on this on the physics side, but I'm confident on my comments as far as its impact vs armors. Like I said in my disclaimer, archery is not my thang. So like Clint used to say, "A man has to know his limitations." lol - Bow'd out

So we've left longswords & katanas for bow & arrows, along with terminal velocity. Next step is seeing whether or not a mass driver on the Moon or on an asteroid would be best for squashing armies and how would we have one in KR?
