$10\; g$ of ice cubes at $0\;^{\circ} C$ are released in a tumbler (water equivalent $55\; g$) at $40\;^{\circ} C$. Assuming that negligible heat is taken from the surroundings,the temperature (in $^{\circ} C$) of water in the tumbler becomes nearly $(L_f = 80\; cal/g)$.

Heat required to melt $1\,g$ of ice is $80\,cal$. $A$ man melts $60\,g$ of ice by chewing it in one minute. His power is ........ $W$.
