A file is transeferd from one location ...

[BINNY]

A file is transferred from one location to another in 'buckets'. The size of the bucket is 10 kilobytes. The bucket gets filled at the rate of 0.0001 kilobytes per millisecond. The transmission time from sender to receiver is 10 milliseconds per bucket. After the receipt of the bucket the receiver sends an acknowledgement that reaches sender in 100 milliseconds. Assuming no error during transmission, write a formula to calculate the time taken in seconds to successfully complete the transfer of a file of size N kilobytes.

(a) 10.11 N (b) 11.011 N (c) 11.01 N (d) 10.101 N (e) 10.011 N


Iam getting the answer as 100.11 secs But they gave only 10.011N ??

Answer is (e)

Time to fill the bucket = 10000 * N msec = 10N sec

Tx + Rx time = Total no. of buckets * (100 + 10) msec = (N / 10) * 110 msec = 0.011N sec

Total time = 10N + 0.011N sec = 10.011N sec
