Take a thick walled pipe made with lead, pass molten iron through it for a second. Once the iron has exited how long did it take the lead pipe to get back to normal temperature?
That is how long energy, as photons, takes to get from the inside of the pipe to the outside.

Re: Physics Thread.
The key here is the word "SCATTERING", its absorbed and reflected off in a random direction, which usually makes a large part of the energy directed inward. This keeps going on and on until it reaches the surface.
BTW: AmberG, I am aware that photons range from gamma rays to low freq radio.
