6. A high street bank decides to extend their premises and move into a second building near their main branch. In order to pass information from one building to the other they lay fibre optic cables to link them. The most cost effective way to do this is to lay the cables along existing pathways.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The map below shows the different ways the cable could be laid.<\/p>\n

(a) Along which route should the cable be laid to ensure that data is passed as quickly as possible? (Use the letters on the diagram)<\/p>\n

(b) If the speed of light along the cables is 2 x 108<\/sup>m\/s, calculate the time delay between sending and receiving the information along this route.<\/p>\n

(c) An engineer surveying the pathways suggests it would be cheaper to lay cables along route A-B-D. What extra time delay in receiving information would this involve?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
