Question
Q2) To measure a base line, a steel tape 30 m long standardized at 15°C with a pull of 100 N
was used. If the temperature at the time of measurement was 20°C and the pull exerted was
160 N.
1- Find the correction per tape length.
2- If the length of 250 m is measured on a slope of 14°, find the horizontal length.
(Take E = 2.1x 10 N/mm', a= 11.2x10 C and cross-sectional area of tape = 0.08 cm)
