A lead bullet weighing 20 g and moving with a velocity of `100 ms^(-1)` comes to rest in a fixed block of wood. Calculate the heat developed and the rise in temperature of the bullet assuming that the half of the heat is absorbed by the bulley. The specific heat of lead is `0.03 cal g^(-1).^(@)C^(-1)`.
