Yeah. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure that's the formula to find the force req'd to accelerate a body, say, to move a fist. I think the one you're looking for is:

Ke=1/2M(V^2)

Being, "Kinetic Energy is equal to one half the mass of the projectile, multiplied by the square of the velocity." I'm sorry if I'm mistaken, any of you physics guys wanna get back to me on that? Thanks.
