A buried IED (improvised explosive device) goes off. 10 kg of metal flies north at 4 m / s. 100 kg of metal flies east at 2 m / s. 5 kg of metal flies south at 8 m / s, and, 1 kg of metal flies west at 200 m / s. The total momentum after the explosion is kg m / s.

Although longitudinal waves can travel through all media types what is the disadvantage of this type of wave transmission? a) he efficiency of he wave transmission is greatly diminished as the media becomes less dense b) the oscillation of one set of particles has a huge impact on neighboring particles c) particles become too close together as they bump into each other making it more likely to hit other particles down the line
