Kinetic energy is not force. Force is mass x acceleration and is a vector. Kinetic energy is a 1/2 m v^2 and is a scalar.
Look at this video.

He takes a bullet straight to the chest and barely moves back at all. However if he was shoved or punched hard in the chest he would easily be knocked back. I did not include a video of someone getting knocked over by a punch but there is an awesome one of bruce lee knocking a guy back into a chair.
Also, here is a similar discussion on another forum: https://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20080626131055AAEMKkP
That is not a science paper or anything but probably explains it better than me. -

A controlled environment is the best way to measure the force difference. In the same situations(ready for it, controlled environment) a punch knocks you down and a bullet does not. Therefore a bullet has less force. If you are off balance/running/surprised then both a bullet and a punch will knock you down so that gives no conclusive results. Read the other link where they talk about the math behind it.

Well when Hulk gets shot he tends to block bullets with his arms, I think it's a natural reaction. Diana through her training blocks it with her bracelets, but maybe she doesn't need to.
