(low kinetic energy), whereas the hammer tip is travelling at a minimum of 16,000 feet per minute (4,880 m/min) and perhaps in excess of 23,000 feet per minute (7,015 m/min) (high kinetic energy). The transfer of energy that results from this collision fractures the grain into many pieces. Sizing is a function of hammertip speed; hammer design and
