A fax message is to be sent from Delhi to Australia via a geostationary satellite. Calculate the minimum time delay between the dispatch and its getting received is $y \times 10^{- 3}$ (in sec) , then y is (Height of geostationary satellite = 36,000 km)

Minimum distance = S = 2h
$= 2 \times 36000 k m = 72000 k m = 72000 \times 1000 m$

Minimum time delay = t = ?
$t = \frac{S}{C} = \frac{72000000}{3 \times 10^{8}} = 24 \times 10^{- 2} s e c = 240 \times 10^{- 3} s$

A fax message is to be sent from Delhi to Australia via a geostationary satellite. Calculate the minimum time delay between the dispatch and its getting received is y×10−3 (in sec) , then y is (Height of geostationary satellite = 36,000 km)

Minimum distance = S = 2h =2×36000km=72000km =72000×1000m Minimum time delay = t = ? t=SC=720000003×108=24×10−2 sec=240×10−3 s
