If a J-type thermocouple has two junctions shown on the right with temp Tā and T3. The known junction (as the reference Vref) is a cold junction (32°F or 0°C), i.e., Vref = 0
mV, and the measured voltmeter output (Vo) is 0.236 mV as the x value. Determine the estimated J-type thermocouple temperature (y) value based on Vm. (Hint: use
interpolation)
