Line AB was determined to be 2395.25m when measured with a 30m‐steel tape supported throughout its length under a pull of 4kg and at a mean temperature of 35°C. The cross‐sectional area of the tape is 0.03 cm^2, coefficient of thermal expansion is 0.0000116/°C and modulus of elasticity of steel is 2.0x10^6 kg/cm^2. Determine a. Correction for the measured length due to temperature if the tape used is of standard length at a temperature of 20°C. Is the tape too long or too short? b. Correction for the measured length due to tension if the tape used is of standard length at a pull of 5 kg. Is the tape too long or too short? c. Correction for the measured length due to sag if it weighs 0.04kg/m d. the corrected length of line AB considering corrections from (a), (b) and (c

a. Correction for the measured length due to temperature if the tape used
is of standard length at a temperature of 20°C. Is the tape too long or too
short?
b. Correction for the measured length due to tension if the tape used is
of standard length at a pull of 5 kg. Is the tape too long or too short?
c. Correction for the measured length due to sag if it weighs 0.04kg/m
d. the corrected length of line AB considering corrections from (a), (b) and (c)
