aluminium pellet is dropped from a height of

30\text{ m}

. Assume

15\%

of the loss in gravitational potential energy is converted into internal energy of the pellet. Given the specific heat capacity of aluminium is

900\,\text{J kg}^{-1}\text{K}^{-1}

, calculate the rise in temperature of the pellet.
