It is required to lay out a line on the ground 500 m. long. The 50 m tape used was 0.015 m longer at 18 kg. pull and at 30.618 Degrees Celsius temperature. If the actual fieldwork will be done at temperature of 22 Degrees Celsius and pull of 14 kg was applied being supported at both ends of tape, compute the correct distance to be laid out if the cross-sectional area of tape is 0.02 sq. cm. and weighs 0.686 kg.
