Question
2. To measure a base line, a steel tape 30 m long,
standardised at 15° C with a pull of 80 N was used.
Find the correction per tape length, if the
temperature at the time of measurement is 25° C
and the pull exerted is 150 N.
Take Young's modulus E = 2 x 10^5 N/mm2 and
coefficient of thermal expansion a = 11.2 x 10^-6/°C.
Cross-sectional area of tape is 8 mm2.
