What does Query norm mean for a function query ?

From the explain output:

 0.88247913 = (MATCH)
FunctionQuery(org.apache.solr.search.function.ReciprocalFloatFunction:500.0/(1.0*float(float(popularity
Rank))+500.0)), product of:
   0.998004 = 500.0/(1.0*float(float(popularityRank)=1.0)+500.0)
   1500.0 = boost
   5.8949605E-4 = queryNorm


QueryNorm is extremely low & that implies that I need a huge boost value for
my function query (I am already testing with a boost of 1500)
While its just a number to me & I can provide that value, I wanted to
understand the behaviour of queryNorm for function queries in general.

Thanks,
