Description : A client-server system uses a satellite network, with the satellite at a height of 40,000 kms. What is the best-case delay in response to a request? (Note that the speed of light in air is 3,00,000 km/second). (A) 133.33 m sec (B) 266.67 m sec (C) 400.00 m sec (D) 533.33 m sec

Last Answer : (D) 533.33 m sec Explanation: The request has to go up and down, and the response has to go up and down. The total path length traversed is thus 160.000 km. The speed of light in air and vacuum is 300,000 km/sec, so the propagation delay alone is 160,000/300,000 sec or about 533 msec.
