Friendly neighborhood physics major Parker Ormonde answers the important question, “How hard do I have to slap a chicken to cook it?”. To be fair, he did make a mistake in his calculations. Not a physics mistake, but an understanding of cooking temperatures mistake. Just going to point out that 205 C (400 F) is the temperature you would set the oven to. Chicken needs to be cooked to an internal temperature of 165 F (75 C). So at 0.0089 C per slap, you would need to slap it 8,427 times, not 23,034. By the same token, to cook it in one slap, you would need an impact velocity of 609.38 m/sec (1363.14 mph).

So again, the above slap would way overcook the chicken. To cook the chicken correctly to 165 F at 0.0089 C per slap, you would need to slap it 8,427 times. And to cook it in one slap, you would need an impact velocity of 609.38 m/sec (1363.14 mph).
This is flawed, as it does not take into account the chicken will cool in between slaps.
In-between? The idea is to cook it IN ONE SLAP, there is no in-between
This can’t be right. If you can slap a chicken about twice a second you could cook an entire chicken with slaps in just over an hour. That’s how long it takes to roast the same chicken in the oven. My slaps cannot possibly impart oven levels of heat energy into a chicken.
