Ping time
Calculate the theoretical ping time between Orlando and Shenzhen, which is 14102 km distant. Ping time measures the round-trip time for small messages sent from the origin to a destination that is echoed back to the source. The name comes from active sonar terminology that sends a pulse of sound and listens for the echo to detect objects underwater.
Assume that signal travel in optic cable - speed of light in a fiber optic cable (200,000km/s).
