Line AB was measured and the result is 745m. It is measured using a 30m tape that is0.005m too short. The tape is standardized at 20°C under a 4.5kg pull. During measurement the temperature is 30°C under a pull of 9.57kg. What is the true horizontal distance of line AB due to incorrect tape length, temperature, and pull? The cross-sectional area of the tape is 0.05cm2 and E = 2x106 kg/cm2
