If you had a pole that was a light year long with either end placed on a planet and then you pushed the pole forward a foot on one end how long until the other end felt it?

Well, first of all, it's going to be darn hard to push the end of that thing a foot from where it is.
Let's say you just hit the bottom end with a hammer, causing a loud " CLUNGGG ", and then
that sound vibration travels down the pole to the other end.
In order to let it move as fast as possible, let's make the pole out of granite, so the " CLUNGGG "
gets to the other end at the speed of earthquake waves.
Your message is heard at the other end, 1 light year away, in a little under 20,000 years .
