Ethernet bus transmission (urgent!)

Archived from groups: comp.dcom.lans.ethernet (More info?)

Hi newbie here. Would like to seek help on this question regding
Ethernet.

Q: In Ethernet bus transmission, sender needs to monitor the line for
collision signal after sending message. If the length of backbone is
500 meters and the transmission speed is 250 meters per second, how
many seconds must the sender monitor the line for collision signal?
Why?

Urgent help needed & deeply appreciated.

Thks!
