Answer:
Given data:
size of a packet is =200 bytes
transmission rate =8 kbps
In a network, transmission delay doesn't depends on the distance between to nodes It depends on the size of packet and transmission rate of the link. transmission delay is calculated by dividing the size of packet by transmission rate of the link. Size of the packet should be in "bits" and transmission rate should be in "bits/sec".
transmission delay (Dt) = The size of the packet(in bits) / transmission rate(bits/sec)
The size of the packet = 200 bytes = 200*8 bits
bandwidth = 8 kbps = 1000*8 bps
transmission delay (Dt) = 200*8/1000*8
= 1/5 = 0.2 seconds
So the Answer is 0.2 second
