Would any of you mind going through the physics of how velocity is slowed of a bullet by going through a shoulder blade?
No, not homework, a curiousity.

Transfer of momentum and friction
MV1 = (M1 + M2)*V after impact
Presume a 45% friction factor of bullet passing through the bone
1 - Is the bullet
2 - Is the body

@HurtMe Most the slowing of the velocity comes from transfer of momentum
