Longer link length and lower transmission rate.
In the Stop-and-Wait protocol, the sender waits for an acknowledgment from the receiver before sending the next packet. This waiting time is equal to the round-trip time (RTT) of the link, which depends on the length of the link. If the transmission rate is lower, the transmission time for each packet is longer. As a result, the link will be idle for a larger fraction of time, waiting for the acknowledgment from the receiver.
Therefore, in scenario (A), where the link length is longer and the transmission rate is lower, the utilization of the link will be the lowest, because the link will be idle for a larger fraction of time, waiting for the acknowledgment from the receiver.
