$A$ gun fires a lead bullet of temperature $300 \ K$ into a wooden block. The bullet having a melting temperature of $600 \ K$ penetrates into the block and melts down. If the total heat required for the process is $625 \ J$,then the mass of the bullet is . . . . . . grams. (Latent heat of fusion of lead $= 2.5 \times 10^4 \ J \ kg^{-1}$ and specific heat capacity of lead $= 125 \ J \ kg^{-1} K^{-1}$)
