The measured distance of two locations is 88.812 m using a 100 m. steel tape at a pull of 15 kg and temperature of 35 °C. The tape is exactly 100 m., weighing 0.02 kg/m, at a temperature of 20 °C (when supported throughout) and a standard pull of 12 kg. If the coefficient of expansion of the tape is 11.6 x10°/°€ and supported at L. = 40 m. interval during the measurement, find the following: a.) Total correction tor temperature b.) Total sum of correetion for sag from 0 to 88.812 m at 40 m interval. c.) Adjusted distance

Question

The measured distance of two locations is 88.812 m using a 100 m. steel tape at a pull of 15 kg and temperature of 35 °C. The tape is exactly 100 m., weighing 0.02 kg/m, at a temperature of 20 °C (when supported throughout) and a standard pull of 12 kg. If the coefficient of expansion of the tape is 11.6 x10°/°€ and supported at L. = 40 m. interval during the measurement, find the following:

a.) Total correction tor temperature

b.) Total sum of correetion for sag from 0 to 88.812 m at 40 m interval.

c.) Adjusted distance
