A steel tape is 30 m. long under a standard pull of 6 kg. with a constant cross-sectional area of 0.05 cm?. if the normal tension applied to make the tape equal to its nominal length when supported only at the end points that is the effect of sag will be eliminated by the elongation of the tape due to the application of this load is equal to 16 kg. Determine the unit weight of the tape. Modulus of elasticity of the tape is 2x10°kg/cm²
