Calculate Gun Recoil Force





Formula

To calculate the gun recoil force (\(GRF\)):

\[ GRF = \frac{m \cdot V^2}{\left(\frac{RD}{12}\right)} \cdot 32.174049 \]

What is Gun Recoil Force?

A gun recoil force is the total force exerted on a person's hand by the recoil action when firing a bullet from a gun.

Example Calculation 1

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ GRF = \frac{0.02 \cdot 2000^2}{\left(\frac{5}{12}\right)} \cdot 32.174049 \approx 6177417.41 \text{ lbf} \]

The gun recoil force is approximately 6177417.41 lbf.

Example Calculation 2

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ GRF = \frac{0.03 \cdot 1500^2}{\left(\frac{4}{12}\right)} \cdot 32.174049 \approx 6515244.92 \text{ lbf} \]

The gun recoil force is approximately 6515244.92 lbf.
