AI Generated Solution

To find out how long sound will take to travel 3.3 km in an iron rail, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Convert Distance from Kilometers to Meters**: - The distance given is 3.3 km. To convert kilometers to meters, we use the conversion factor \(1 \text{ km} = 1000 \text{ m}\). - Therefore, \(3.3 \text{ km} = 3.3 \times 1000 = 3300 \text{ m}\). ...
