$A$ block of steel of mass $2 \,kg$ slides down a rough inclined plane of inclination $\sin ^{-1}\left(\frac{3}{5}\right)$ at a constant speed. Assuming that the mechanical energy lost due to friction is used to increase the temperature of the block, calculate the rise in temperature of the block as it slides through $80 \,cm$. (Specific heat capacity of steel $= 420 \,J kg^{-1} K^{-1}$ and acceleration due to gravity $= 10 \,ms^{-2}$) (in $^{\circ} C$)
