The allowable power loss is 10 log 100 = 20 dBa. From Figure in next page, the attenuation is
about 13 dB per km.Length = (20 dB)/(13 dB per km) = 1.5 km
b. Length = (20 dB)/(20 dB per km) = 1 kmc. Length = (20 dB)/(2.5 dB per km) = 8 kmd. Length = (20 dB)/(10 dB per km) = 2 kme. Length = (20 dB)/(0.2 dB per km) = 100 km
