Question: 5 . 2 4 . Differential levels were run from B . M . 1 ( elevation 2 0 0 . 1 2 5 m

5.24. Differential levels were run from B.M.1(elevation 200.125 m ) to B.M.2, a distance of 90 km . On the average, the backsight distances were 100 m in length and the foresight distances were 50 m in length. The elevation of B.M.2 as computed from the level notes, was 1113.355 m . Compute the error due to the earth's curvature and atmospheric refraction, and correct the elevation of B.M.2.
5.25. The levels of Problem 5.24 were rerun using an average backsight distance of 60 m and at average foresight distance of 20 m . The elevation of B.M.2, as deduced from the level notes, was
1112.941 m . Compute the error due to curvature and refraction and correct the elevation of B.M.2.
5 . 2 4 . Differential levels were run from B . M
