$A$ heater supplying constant power $P$ watts is switched $ON$ at time $t=0$ to raise the temperature of a liquid kept in a calorimeter of negligible heat capacity. $A$ student records the temperature of the liquid $T(t)$ at equal time intervals. $A$ graph is plotted with $T(t)$ on the $Y$-axis versus $t$ on the $X$-axis. Assume that there is no heat loss to the surroundings during heating. Then,

$A$ $10\, kW$ drilling machine is used to drill a bore in a small aluminium block of mass $8.0\, kg$. How much is the rise in temperature of the block in $2.5$ minutes,assuming $50\, \%$ of power is used up in heating the machine itself or lost to the surroundings? (Specific heat of aluminium $= 0.91\, J\, g^{-1}\, K^{-1}$)
