The two mediums below propagate particles differently. Which of the two medium would have higher acoustic velocity and create better propagation or movement of particles?

MEDIUM 1 - water balloons
1. What are the characteristics of this medium?
2. What would happen to your hand when holding water balloon after the balloon was struck with a hammer? (assume it does not break)
3. Is this medium good for energy propagation, prove it through supporting references. (pg number)

MEDIUM 2 - hard baseballs
1. What are the characteristics of this medium?
2. What would happen to your hand when holding a baseball after being struck with a hammer? Did you feel more pressure when compared to the water balloon? why?
3. Is this medium good for energy propagation, prove it through supporting references.
