6.) A steel tape has the following properties: Nominal length: 50 m Standardised length: 50.010 m at 50 N tension and 20 °C Cross-sectional area: 2.5 mm2 Weight: 0.15 N m-1 Distance measurement: taping 121 For a recorded length of 40.000 m with this tape, calculate the following corrections: a.) Slope, where the height differences between the ends of the line are 1 m and 2 m b.) Standardisation c.) Tension if 35 N and 75 N are applied to the tape for the measurement d.) Temperature if this is 10 °C and 25 °C during the measurement e.) Sag with tensions of 50 and 100 N applied to the tape (assume the slope angle is zero)

6.) A steel tape has the following properties:
Nominal length: 50 m
Standardised length: 50.010 m at 50 N tension and 20 °C
Cross-sectional area: 2.5 mm2
Weight: 0.15 N m-1
Distance measurement: taping 121
For a recorded length of 40.000 m with this tape, calculate the following corrections:
a.) Slope, where the height differences between the ends of the line are 1 m and 2 m
b.) Standardisation
c.) Tension if 35 N and 75 N are applied to the tape for the measurement
d.) Temperature if this is 10 °C and 25 °C during the measurement
e.) Sag with tensions of 50 and 100 N applied to the tape (assume the slope angle is zero)
