AI Thread Summary
Mechanical engineers utilize thermodynamics in their work, often employing polynomials to relate specific properties. A key discussion point is the implementation of MATLAB to determine temperature by finding the value of T that satisfies the equation f(T) = cp. This involves solving for the zero of the function f(T) - cp = 0. The bisection method is recommended as an effective approach to find this zero, paralleling solutions to similar problems encountered in engineering tasks.

You need to find the value of T which makes f(T) = cp. This is equivalent to finding the zero of f(T) - cp = 0. This is exactly the same as your other problem, so you can use bisection.
