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?

And for the bio/kin/nursing/premed students: how much would need to be amputated?
Hi there! I'm a certified surgeon in my DnD roleplay and I can safely say you've just amputated your own arm at that speed at just below the shoulder!
Lol i dont know the math but the speed required to apply that force means theres a sonic boom as well right? Along with the bubblewrap crack of your arm shattering in the process of somehow applying this force/acceleration. I actually wonder if there would be heat before the slap since the distance traveled is so short. Is there enough air between your windup and the chicken?
That's like... 4 or 5 times the speed of sound at sea level so... There would be a bit of a boom.
If you could cook a chicken that fast with one slap, wouldn't it be disintegrated from the force of the blow?
I once watched a youtube video where someone built a rig to explore this very question
So the flash could cook a chicken by slapping it
And what would that do to my hand?
There are so many weird assumptions here. There is more than a hand moving when a slap is performed.
A skilled slapper could put more of their body weight behind the slap. I'd assume at least 40 kg or even more as the average slap.
Average rotisserie chicken is 2 lb? Costco's is 3lb. That would require many more slaps.
I read once that the Mongolian warriors would place raw meat under their saddles and after riding all day would then consume it. Now I'm thinking that's not so far fetched.
How can she slap?!?!
Oh, that's how
Not chicken, but someone tried hitting steak with drum pedals: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=QFTCqnYk5Sw
