Point A is between points B and C. The distances of B and C from point A are 1000 m and 2000 m, respectively. Measured from point A, the angle of elevation of point B is 18deg30’, while that of point C is unknown. The difference in the elevations of B and C is 44.4 m, with C being lower than B. Considering the effects of curvature and refraction, the value of unknown angle is nearest to:
A vertical angle of -14°30' is read to a target 1.75 m. above point M. The measured inclined distance (S) is 644.15 m. and the elevation of point K is 320.70 m. above mean sea level. If the height of instrument at K is 1.27 m., determine the elevation of M, considering the effects of the earth's curvature and atmospheric refraction.
