Problem 2: Round off answers to 3 decimals. A steel tape with a coefficient of linear expansion of 0.0000116 /°C is known to be 50m long a 20 ° C. The tape was used to measure a line which was found to be 532.28 meters long when the temperature was 35 ° C. determine the following a. Temperature correction for the measured line b. If the 50-m tape has a cross sectional area of 0.05 cm² and it has been standardized at a tension of 5.5kg. If E= 2.10 x 10° kg/cm, determine the elongation of tape (the correction due to Tension, C,) if a pull of 12.5 kg is applied. c. Correct length if the line
