The sound was repeated because of the phenomenon of echo. The speed of sound in the metal is 800 m/s.
Echo results from the reflection of sound waves. The reason why a sound may be heard twice owes to the phenomenon of reflection which leads to echo.
To determine the speed of sound in the metal;
Length of metal = 1000 m
Time taken between the two sounds = 2.5 s
Using the formula;
V = 2d/t
V = 2(1000)/2.5
V = 800 m/s
Atoms are electrically neutral because they have equal numbers of protons (positively charged) and electrons (negatively charged). If an atom gains or loses one or more electrons, it becomes an ion. If it gains one or more electrons, it now carries a net negative charge, and is thus "anionic."
