An advanced computer sends information to its various parts viainfrared light pulses traveling through silicon fibers. To acquiredata from memory, the central processing unit sends a light-pulserequest to the memory unit. The memory unit processes the request,then sends a data pulse back to the central processing unit. Thememory unit takes 0.5 ns to process a request.
If the information has to be obtained from memory in 2.0 ns, whatis the maximum distance the memory unit can be from the centralprocessing unit?
I have already tried 22.5, 60, 37.5, and 45 and these answers werewrong. I only have two tries left so please help!!
