To find the velocity of sound in iron, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Problem We have a sound source at one end of a 2 km long iron bar. Two sounds are heard at the other end with an interval of 5.6 seconds. We know the velocity of sound in air is 330 m/s. ### Step 2: Convert the Length of the Iron Bar Convert the length of the iron bar from kilometers to meters: \[ ...
