Hi,
Is it any way to calculate using the MTU size of TCP packet and the
sampling rate, like a mathematical approach using formulas.

Well, no, because you have to actually *measure* the delay.
Any real IP network has a number of components, each of which introduces
time-varying latencies.
It's a meaningless question to ask "what is the delay of a typical TCP
channel". Because, well, there's no such thing.
Is your TCP channel across the room on a piece of wire? Does it go
through switches/routers? How many of them?
Are all the elements running at the same notional bit-rate?
What is the current latency of packets from userland, through the
kernel, until they "hit the wire"? That varies both with system
architecture and current system loading factors.
You could probably boil it all down to several different delay
contributions, assign them variables and weighting, and come up with an
equation.
But without estimates for the likely ranges of each parameter, it
won't tell you anything useful, compared to actually measuring the channel.
Frequently.
