Lets say a person is swinging an axe to bust up some roots. the axe head is 12 lbs, the handle is 3 feet long, the person is 5'10'' and lets say average strength. the roots are, obviously, in the ground.
Can we come up with a broad ballpark figure at how hard the ground is getting hit, somehow, with your mathemagic?
