The number of bits on a transmission line that are in the process of actively being transmitted (i. e.,the number of bits that have been transmitted but have not yet been received) is referred to as the bit length of the line. Plot the line distance versus the transmission speed for a bit length of 1000 bits. Assume a propagation velocity of 2 X 108 m/s.

The plotted diagram of line distance versus the transmission speed is uploaded below.

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Bit length B = 1000 bits

propagation velocity V = 2 × 10⁸ m/s

now, we know that the bit length of a link is expressed as;

B = R × d/V

where V is propagation velocity

d is the distance

R is the transmission speed

B is bit length

so we substitute

1000 = R × d/(2 × 10⁸)

1000 = Rd/(2 × 10⁸)

2 × 10¹¹ = Rd

R = 2 × 10¹¹ / d

R = 2E+11

Hence, we plot the transmission speed versus line distance; as shown in the image BELOW.

From the plot, if the transmission speed increases, the distances between stations decreases and vise versa.

Hence, both are inversely proportional.
