a 30 m steel tape was used to measure aline and the initial pull is 5.5 kg. Pull at time of measurement is 8 kg. Weight of tape is 0.05 kg/m. E = 2.1x106 kg/cm2. Cross section =0.04 sq.cm. Measured distance between two points = 471.450 m in an inclined surface having a gradient of 3%. Find the correct horizontal distance between the two points.
