2. A 50-m tape of standard length has a mass of 0.02kg/m, with a cross-sectional area of 0.04 sq.
cm. It has a modulus of elasticity of 2.10x106 kg/sq. cm. The tape is of standard length under a
pull of 5.5 kg when supported throughout its length and a temperature of 20°C. This tape was
used to measure a distance between A and B and was recorded to be 458.65m. long. At the time
of measurement, the pull applied was 8 kg. with the tape supported only at its endpoints and
the temperature observed was 15°C. Assuming the coefficient of linear expansion of the tape is
0.0000116m/°C. Compute for the true length (with the combined effects of tension, sag, and
temperature) of the measured line AB.
