The non-inverting buffers have delays $${\delta _1} = 2$$ $$ns$$ and $${\delta _2} = 4$$ $$ns$$ as shown in the figure. Both $$XOR$$ gates and all wires have zero delay. Assume that all gate inputs, outputs and wires are stable at logic level $$0$$ at time$$0.$$ If the following waveform is applied at input $$A$$, how many transition(s) (change of logic levels) occurs(s) at $$B$$ during the interval from $$0$$ to $$10$$ $$ns?$$
