A 50 m. tape of standard length has a weight of 0.05 kg/m, with a cross sectional area of 0.04 sq.cm. It has a
modulus of elasticity of 2.10 x 10^6 kg/cm2. The tape is of standard length under a pull of 5.5 kg when
supported throughout this length of 200C. This tape was used to a measure a distance between A and B was
recorded to be 558.65 m. long. At the time of measurement the pull applied was 7.5kg. with the tape
supported only at its end points and the temperature observed was 180C. Assuming coefficient of linear
expansion of the tape is 0.0000116 m/0C.
Compute the correction due to the applied pull of 7.5kg.
