You can experience this if you hit a coin with a hammer a few times.
Fun fact: someone actually did it
incredible engineering feat !
this will definitely fulfill someone’s kink.
I was going to link it if no one else had. Glad I wasn’t the only one that recalled that lol
But it only needs to reach 165°F, about 74°C.
Basically every food package says so.To be clear, the slapping would have to be done in one single second to account for heat loss to environment.
What if you wrap it in a blanket?
It’s expected there will be some heat loss over time in any scenario, I’m just explaining that the exact numbers to reach 200C chicken (way overcooked) in this very specific example only work if it happens near instantly.
You can still cook it over time, easily, just with different numbers than this example.
There was a viral YouTube video of doing exactly this a few years back.
One thing to note, actually cooking something requires an application of heat over time. Instantaneous heat transfer will not cook, it will usually just burn.
Some people say you can use a nuke to cook a pizza if you put it in the right spot, but the same problem would apply.
Related, some guy did actually slap a chicken into being cooked. It was predictably disgusting:
I was hungry
not anymore
I’m hungrier because I put so many calories into slapping.
Why isn’t it a concern what slapping at this speed does to your hand/arm?
Fun fact, 165F is often parroted for cooking chicken, but I urge everyone to go lower. 155-160F results in much juicier chicken. 165F corresponds to instantaneously killing all bacteria. 155F is about 60s, and 160F is 15s.
And for even juicier chicken, directly inject cranberry juice using a needle and syringe. You can use other juices, but IMO, cranberry goes best with chicken.
For outrageously juicy chicken, sous vide to 155-160F directly in cranberry juice (no vacuum bag). This may bring the chicken beyond many people’s juicy limits, so I suggest trying the other two recipes first to gauge your personally acceptable limit of juiciness.
This is the winner
Didn’t someone build a machine to do this
Wait a minute 400°F? What dafuck?
He confused internal temp with oven temp lol (I still probably wouldn’t cook a chicken at 400° though.)
The chicken ran away when I tried to slap it.
At 400F it would no longer be a chicken but a pile of glowing cinders. A chicken is cooked at 165F.
How can she slap?!?!
Oh, that’s how
The real question is if you slapped hard enough to raise the temperature to 74C (undergrad clearly doesn’t cook), what would the temperature of your hand be? And for the engineers: how far up your arm would you have to measure before the temperature returned to normal body temperature? And for the bio/kin/nursing/premed students: how much would need to be amputated?
