A 50 m steel tape weighing 1.50 Kg is of standard length under a pull of 5 Kg, supported for full length. The tape was used in measuring a line 1,505.25 m long on uneven ground under a steady pull of 10 Kg. Assuming E = 2 x 10^6 Kg/cm^2 and the unit weight of the steel is 7.9 x 10^ -3 Kg/cm3, determine the correct length of the measured line. Express the cross-section of the tape, the correction and your final answer in two decimal places. A) 1,505.16 m B 1,505.34 m 1,505.26 m D 1,505. 24 m None of the above
