How fast does it take electricity to go from on point on earth to another point on the other side of the earth, assuming a metal wire could stretch between these two points?

Remember that we have a quantitative center that can help you if you find this part of the assignment not intuitive, which is perfectly Ok in this class! :-) | How fast does it take electricity to go from on point on earth to another point on the other side of the earth, assuming a metal wire could stretch between these two points?
