General Airsoft Discussion / BB Energy

Im not sure if this is a myth but would just like to ask. I heard that the higher weight bb you use the harder it hits, is this true? The only reason I ask is because this equation wouldn't have you thinking so:
Energy = .5 * Mass * Velocity^2
If you notice if you put a 5 in for mass and a 2 in for velocity you have far less energy than if you put a 2 in for mass and a 5 in for velocity.
Energy = .5 * Mass * Velocity^2
If you notice if you put a 5 in for mass and a 2 in for velocity you have far less energy than if you put a 2 in for mass and a 5 in for velocity.
