15) Please include complete solution and diagram if possible.
A line was determined to be 2,395.25 m when
measured with a 30-m steel tape supported
throughout its length under a pull of 4 kg at a mean
temperature of 35°C. Tape used is of standard
length at 20°C under a pull of 5 kg. Cross-sectional
area of the tape is 0.03 cm^2. The coefficient of
thermal expansion is 0.0000116/°C and the
modulus of elasticity of the tape is 2 million
kg/cm^2. Find the corrected length (in m) of the
line?
