A line was determined to be 2212.50 m when measured with a 30 m steel tape supported throughout its length under a pul of 3kg and at a mean temperature of 28°. Determine the correct length of line if the tape used is of standard length at 20°C under a pull of 5kg. The cross-sectional area of the tape is 0.03 sq cm, its coefficient of linear expansion is 0.0000116/1 °C and the modulus of elasticity is 2.0x10 kg/cm2
