Points Possible: 1, Points Correct: 0 Next If a train is 100 kilometers away, how much sooner would you hear the train coming by listening to the rails (iron) as opposed to listening for it standing by the track? In other words, how much faster will the sound travel through the iron rails than through the air? Assume the air temperature is 0°C. Sound will reach you seconds sooner.

Explanation:

The distance covered = 100 km = 100,000 m

The speed of sound in iron, = 5130 m/s

The speed of sound in air at 0° C, = 331.5°C

Speed = distance/time

Time = Distance /speed

the answer is d. 4

hope this

also the more points you give the faster your questions get answered

igneous rocks also form where plates converge. the subducting plate melts as it sinks into the crust of the earth, and the melt rises into the overriding plate forming volcanoes. metamorphic rocks are formed mainly in the lithosphere, wherever there is high pressure and high temperature. -woods
