A line was determined to be 2395.25 m when measured with a 30-m steel tape supported throughout its length under a pull of 4 kg at a mean temperature of 35°C. Tape used is of standard length at 20°C under a pull of 5kg. Cross-sectional area of the tape is 0.03 cm? Modulus of elasticity is 2x106 kg/cm2
