A 100-ft steel tape of cross-sectional area 0.0061 in2, weight 2.1 lb, and standardized at 68o F is 99.983 ft between end marks when supported throughout under a 12.0-lb pull. A horizontal distance AB = 196.09 ft was measured in two segments with this tape at 61o F with a tension of 12.0-lb and ends-only support. (It was measured with one full segment of 100.00’ and a second segment of 96.09’.) What is the pull correction for this measurement?

(Questions 1-3 contain identical calibration and measurement information, which will be repeated for each question. The only difference will be in the question at the end.) A 100-ft steel tape of cross-sectional area 0.0061 in2, weight 2.1 lb, and standardized at 68o F is 99.983 ft between end marks when supported throughout under a 12.0-lb pull. A horizontal distance AB = 196.09 ft was measured in two segments with this tape at 61o F with a tension of 12.0-lb and ends-only support. (It was measured with one full segment of 100.00’ and a second segment of 96.09’.) What is the temperature correction for this measurement?
