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

1 Answer

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.

Description : Mr.Aneesh left for city 1 from city 2 at 3.00 pm. He travelled at the speed of 60km/hr for 1 and half hours. After that the speed was reduced to 15 km/hr. If the distance between two cities is 120 kms, at what time did Mr.Aneesh reach city 1 ? a) 6.30 pm. b) 5.30 pm. c) 7.30 pm. d) 8.30 pm.

Last Answer : A Mr.Aneesh travelled 60 km/hr for 1 1/2 hours (3/2 hours). Distance covered in 3/2 hours = 60 x 3/2 = 90 km. Therefore, remaining distance = 120 -90 = 30 km After 3/2 hours, the speed was ... village 2 at 3.00 pm + 3 hours 30 minutes = 6.30pm Hence the required answer is 6.30 pm.
