A line was determined to be 2395.25m when measured with a 30m steel tape supported throughout its length under a pull of 4kg. Determine the temperature during measurement if the tape used is of standard length at 20°C under a pull of 5kg. The cross-sectional area of the tape is 0.03sq.cm, its coefficient of linear expansion is 0.0000116/°C, the corrected distance is 2395.63m and the modulus of elasticity of steel is 2.10x106 kg/cm2.
