Topic: SURVEYING 1. In walking along a 85-m course, the pacer of a field party counted 35.50, 38.25, 37.50, 37.00, 37.25 and 36.50 paces. Then 50.50, 51.25, 51.00, 51.25 and 50.50 strides were counted in walking from one marker to another established marker along a straight and level course. Determine the distance between the two markers.2. A rectangular lot was measured using a 50-m steel tape at 30 oC. If the recorded length and width of the lot are 197.56m and 105.63m respectively. Determine the Error in the area, if the coefficient of thermal expansion is 0.0000116/ oC and standard temperature of the tape is 25 oC.

A 45 m course, AB, on level ground was paced by a surveyor for the purpose of determining his pace factor. Assuming that the taped length of line CD is 667.0 m, and you have a relative precision of 1/500. If the surveyor took 756,763, 759,760 and 757 paces walking that unknown distance, what is the mean number of paces that the surveyor took when computing for the pace factor for the course AB
In a 100 meter course, a Field Engineer walks five times with the following number of paces: 138, 137, 137, 136 and 138. If he walks at an average of three paces per second, find; a.) How long did he finished doing the walking? b.) He wants to estimate the length of a rough road subject for construction and took him 20 minutes to reach the end.how long is the road? C.) He wanted to find the area of a residential lot and counted his paces at 240 paces at one side and 150 paces on the adjacent side. I need answer ASAP?
