Answer: It is 6 bytes (48 bits) long

Detailed Explanation:

In a LAN, each node is assigned a physical address, also known as a MAC/Ethernet address. This address is unique to each of the nodes on the LAN and is 6 bytes (48 bits) long, which is burned on the Ethernet card (also known as the network interface card)
