Answer: All data will be sent in 89.39 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Data transfer rate: 100 Mbps=100 [tex]\frac{Mb}{s}[/tex] ×[tex]\frac{1Tb}{1024^{2} Mb}[/tex]×[tex]\frac{3600s}{h}[/tex]=0.3433 [tex]\frac{Tb}{h}[/tex]
The pigeon can fly 1000 km/day and it needs to fly 400 km (round trip).
Pigeon rate: [tex]\frac{1000km}{24h}[/tex]=41.67 [tex]\frac{km}{h}[/tex]
Time of round trip: 400 km÷[tex]\frac{1000km}{24h}[/tex]=9.6 h
So the pigeon can send 1 Tb every 9.6 hours.
If we sum the rates we can get the time for sending all the data:
40 Tb= (0.3433 Tb/h + 1 Tb/9.6h)×t
T= 89.39 hours
