QUESTION 21: A 50m tape of standard length has weight of 0.05kg/m, with a cross sectional area of 0.04sqcm. It has a modulus of elasticity, E = 2x106 kg/cm² The tape is of standard length under a pull of 5.5kg when supported throughout its length and a temperature of 20°C. This tape was used to measure a distance between A and B and was recorded to be 458.65m long. At the time of measurement, the pull applied was 8kg with the tape supported only at its endpoints and the temperature observed was 18°C. Assuming coefficient of expansion of steel tape as 0.0000116/°C. a) Compute the correction due to the applied pull. b) Compute the correction due to sag of the tape. c) Compute the true length of the measured line AB due to the combined effects of applied pull, sag and temperature.

To measure a distance, Neslyn utilized a 30m steel tape. The tape was eventually discovered to be 0.03m too short. Do you think the tape has a 4mm cross-section? 0.3627N/m weight, and At a temperature of 25°C and a pull of 55N, it was standardized. The tape was kept horizontal and sustained at midspan with a constant tension of 50N during the measurement. At the time of measurement, the temperature was 30.7°C. Determine the adjusted distance if the measured distance is 420.67m (m). 3. Decimal places round your answer.
