1. A line is recorded as Am long. It is measured with a (E÷200)kg tape (Bm full tape length) which is (B+0.005)m. long at 20°C under a 50 Newton pull supported at both ends. During measurement, the temperature is 10°C and the tape is suspended under 75 Newton pull. The line is measured 2.5% grade. E = 200 GPa, cross-sectional area of tape is (D÷100)cm² and the coefficient of linear expansion is 0.0000116 m/°C.

the value of A=382.3 , E=120 , B, 25 , AND D=9

1. A line is recorded as Am long. It is measured with a (E÷200)kg tape (Bm full tape
length) which is (B+0.005)m. long at 20°C under a 50 Newton pull supported at both
ends. During measurement, the temperature is 10°C and the tape is suspended under 75
Newton pull. The line is measured 2.5% grade. E = 200 GPa, cross-sectional area of tape
is (D÷100)cm² and the coefficient of linear expansion is 0.0000116 m/°C.
a. Compute the actual length of tape during measurement.
b. Compute the total error to be corrected for inclined distance
c. What is the horizontal true distance?
