A body was found in the basement of the Underwater Basket Weaving Building at 12:00 noon today, where the temperature is a steady 65 degrees Fahrenheit. When I found, the core temperature was 92.8 degrees Fahrenheit. Two hours later, at 2:00 PM, the core temperature had fallen to 87.1. Assuming that the body temperature. was 98.6 at the time of death, use Newton's law of cooling to find the time of death. ROUND TO 2 DECIMAL PLACES. The time of death was about 1.75 hours before the body was found.
