| 2 | Provided that the sound travel time h/c ( c is the sound speed in the object ) is short compared with the time for the impactor to fall through a scale height , stresses parallel to the axis should roughly be in hydrostatic equilibrium , with the axial stress at any point within the object being that required to decelerate the trailing mass . |
| 3 | Most of the radionuclides released are of local or regional concern , because their half-lives are short compared with the time required for dispersion to greater distances . |
