A line is regarded as 485 m long. It is measured with a 500 grams tape which is 30.05 m long at 20°C under a 4.5 kg pull supported throughout its length. During measurement the temperature is 4.5°C and the tape is suspended under a 6.5 kg pull. The line is measured at 3% arade. What is the true horizontal distance? (E=2x10° kg/cm2 v =126.54 cm/kg |linear expansion is 1.16x10-5/C
