(a) A cougar was found dead in the woods by a ranger, which he assumed was shot by a poacher. The recorded body temperature of the dead body was 27 °C (degree Celcius) while the temperature of the woods was assumed to be uniform at 24 °C. The rate of cooling of the body can be expressed as: i dT dt where I is the temperature of the body in °C, Ta is temperature of the surrounding medium (in °C) and k is proportionally constant. Let initial temperature of the cougar be 37 °C while k = 0.152. ii. = -k(T - Ta), Estimate the temperature of the dead body at time, 0≤ t ≤ 9 hours by using Euler's method with At = 1 hour. Approximate how long the cougar had been killed at T = 27 °C by using linear interpolation techniques.
