Question
2- A 100m tape was used to measure a distance between stations P and Q. The recorded slope distance was 880.00m under 45 Cº. The elevation angle measured by a clinometer was 30° 40/ 25" and the standardized length of the tape was shorter than its nominal length with 24 cm under 15 Cº. The coefficient of thermal expansion and contraction of the tape is 0.0002 /unit length/degree Celsius. Compute the corrected slope distance and the required horizontal distance PQ.
