A data acquisition system for environmental monitoring is used to record the temperature of an air stream

Question:

A data acquisition system for environmental monitoring is used to record the temperature of an air stream as measured by a thermocouple. It shows an essentially sinusoidal variation after about 15s. The maximum recorded temperature is 128F, and the minimum is 120F at 1.8 cycles per min. It is estimated that the thermocouple has a time constant of 5s. Estimate the actual maximum and minimum air temperatures.
