Okay, I'll just pile on the physics question while you prepare your report :P

5. Can you estimate the explosive power of the detonation cord, based on equal and opposite reaction that resulted in Mercy being slammed against the car windshield? As a follow-up, I'm also interested in your explanation as to how the blast would send her flying back that much, but her face, hair, and clothing (the one above the elbow) remain unscathed?
