&gt; According to my (mis)calculations, the arrow in the example figures would
&gt; strike a target 100 metres away with a net collision force of 3N. 

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!

You can't report a collision by saying it was 3N!  How long does this 3N
force get applied?  If it is applied instantaniously there will be no
effect, since force is kg*m/(s^2).  I wanna know what the
*impulse* imparted by this arrow is.  You know, the integral of force
with respect to  time!  grrrrr. ;)

&gt; 3N being
&gt; equal to the force exerted by a 300g mass in earth's gravity. To quote
&gt; someone whom I have forgotten, "I think.. not."
&gt; 

You're setting the acceleration due to gravity to 10 m/(s^2)?  ewwwwww.

Sorry, I was all wound up from working on CSGMUD, that I had to do
something. Thanks for letting me take it out on you Matt. :)
