4 minutes 37.35 seconds.

Work Step by Step

Speed=$\frac{\text{distance}}{\text{time}}=\frac{1\,mi}{(3\times60\,s)+43.13\,s}$ $=\frac{1\,mi}{223.13\,s}\times\frac{1609\,m}{1\,mi}\times\frac{1\,km}{1000\,m}$ $=0.007211\,km/s$ Time=$\frac{\text{distance}}{\text{speed}}=\frac{2\,km}{0.007211\,km/s}=277.35\,s=4\,min\,37.35\,sec$
