A steel tape of nominal length 200 m with a plumb bob of mass 16 kg attached to it was used to measure a length down a shaft as 160.852 m. The mean temperature during the measurement was 4 C. If the tape was standardized to be 200.0014m under a tension of 115 N at 20" C temperature, determine the correct measured length. The following data may be used: Mass of tape = 0.07 kg/m Cross-sectional area of tape= 10 mm Coefficient of linear expansion a = 11x 10/°C Modulus of clasticity = 2x 10° Nmm Acceleration due to gravity 9.807 m's.
A typical differential manometer is attached to two sections A and B in a horizontal pipe through which water is flowing at a steady rate as shown in Figure 4. The deflection of mercury in the manometer is 0.60 m. Calculate the difference in pressure between sections Aand B. Take the densities of water and mercury as 1000 kg/m3 and 13570 kg/m3 respectively.
A surveying team used a 100m tape which is of standard length at 32°C in measuring a certain distance and found out that the length of tape have different tension were applied as shown. Let K = 0.0000116 m/°C. Length of tape (m)  Tension Applied (kg)  99.986 10 99.992 14 100.003 20  a. What tension must be applied to the tape at a temperature of 32°C so that it would be of standard length?  b. What tension must be applied to the tape at a temperature of 40.6°C so that it would be of standard length?
