Derive Forward Euler, Backward Euler, and Crank-Nicolson schemes for
Newton's law of cooling:
T' = -k(T-T_s),\quad T(0)=T_0,\ t\in (0,t_{\mbox{end}}]
Physical quantities:
- T(t) : temperature of an object at time t
- k : parameter expressing heat loss to the surroundings
- T_s : temperature of the surroundings
- T_0 : initial temperature
