I think she may have heard about the sometimes observed oddity that hot water freezes faster than cold water, and applied it backwards believing that cold water must boil faster than hot water.
@@cross9149according to the pinned comment she didn't put cold water in a pot and then go to boil it she *topped up already hot water with cold* and thought it would boil faster
@@cross9149 Mate go boil your kettle with cold water and time how long it takes to boil. Now Reboil the kettle with the already hot water and time it. I guarantee it takes less time to boil the hot water.
@Darkforge 🤦🏼 it means he will wanted to curse at her what he couldn’t then he wanted to be angry but his Wifi had no internet preventing him to yell so his only option to express himself was to be confused Bec that was the only option available to him as the other 2 Weren’t so basically he was so confused on what she said he didn’t know to even say or express himself so he was genuinely confused to how to act with that answer she gave him
Yall may not know but this was a dumb lie she told in an attempt to make gordon mad so she can use his anger to boil the water and correct the mistake. A clutch move.

@Zach Animate lol this was the most likes I've had on my comment (except for that one time when another channel owner deleted my comment because he didn't like my joke)
She's technically correct. The acceleration of heating is quicker in a pot of cold water than in a pot of hot water. The comparison is like saying, "a car that's not moving accelerates to 20 mph faster than a car that starts at 10 mph." While clearly the moving car will reach 20 mph first, the car starting from from 0 will still have a higher acceration. The cold water does heat at a faster rate than hot water, it's just that hot water will boil first. Her thinking is probably based on a misunderstanding of this fact.

DID YOU KNOW?? TEABAGS WERE INVENTED , IN THE COLD WAR. But, you cannot make tea without hot water. So they made hot water, in the cold war to make teabags. So really the teabag, invented hot water! Interesting huh!
@@chrisgould101 Dude, look it up hot water was invented in 1889, but the teabags were invented in 1908. So, really, the hot water invented teabags! Because they made something FOR the hot water.
OH, that’s bc she thought you were still supposed to act like it was there. You know, cause, like, the convenience to be enjoyed is in the distance one is able to travel from the receiver not the luxury of a wire-free environment.
@@bakacdaz Take it as a grain of salt. Many scientists are still having disagreement of it parameter With that in mind, please also remember, that while hot water freeze faster, it does not mean, it cool down faster.
That happened with my dad. He was staying in a hospital for some operation and was sleeping at night when a nurse woke him up to give him sleeping pills for some reason
I always wondered if it was true. But then I learned that when water is heated, it's molecules tend to separate. Since cold water's molecules are closer together and hot water's is more spread apart, hot water would boil alot faster.
I learned in high school chemistry that when something is heated up, it can either increase in temperature OR change state, but it can never do both at the same time. So starting with colder water just means the water has more temperature to get through before it reaches the boiling point and can start putting that heat energy towards changing state instead of changing temperature.
I was always raised to not put hot tap water in anything you’re cooking. I think when my parents were growing up there was this thing where hot water from the tap had lead in it, and so that was why they had me use cold water instead. Maybe her parents also told her to use cold for this reason but never bothered explaining it. Just “do it this way and obey!”
Or it's the "cold water freezes slower than hot water" thing that got misinterpreted and mixed in there. Conflating information like this happens to everyone.
I think it's because hot water is often stored in a tank separately, which can attract insects and rodents (because it's hot) which occasionally get in and die in it. Still, it should be ok as long as you're boiling it as that'll kill off any pathogens.
Funny thing is, I've known several people that actually believed this too. It's basically due to every packaged coffee or minute rice recipe calling for cold water, and telling how long it will take to boil. People assumed this was the ideal method and never questioned it.
You don't wanna use hot water because some plumbing systems slowly dissolve from the hot water and all the pollutants caught in the water heater comes out with it. Not a great idea to use hot water for cooking.
The EPA says to avoid hot tap water because it's more likely to contain more lead, since hot water dissolves lead faster. Source here: www.epa.gov/lead/why-cant-i-use-hot-water-tap-drinking-cooking-or-making-baby-formula
She is actually right, cold water boils faster the already hot water, it may sound stupid but it has something to do to heat transfer and hot the water particles are moving wen heated
@cross9149 If I recall corrctly, this is one of those things that high school physics teaches which is only partially accurate Someone can correct me, but water doesnt boil at 100 degrees centigrade. Every individual molecule of water is becoming highly energetic at slightly different rates. Its why a pot of water doesnt immediately start bubbling completely, but will gradually produce more and more bubbles If I'm remembering properly, this is where the myth comes from. Because youre heating it to 100 degrees C, it takes longer for water which is at 98 degrees to reach 100 than it would take watee st 8 degrees to reach 10. Why? Because every molecule that hits 100 degrees boils off, which reduces the average temperature of the water very slightly At 8 degrees, you don't have that problem, so the rate of increase is faster. It will still take less time for hot water to reach boiling point though, as the hot water is hotter and closer to boiling point. Topping up hot water with cold water lowers the average temperature of the water, so you just lose time
@@cross9149 shes not right, shes thinking of the mpemba effect, where hot water will FREEZE faster than cold water, under certain circumstances. If all parameters are equal (like pressure, purification, etc) EXCEPT for the water's temperature, the hotter water will always boil faster than the colder.

@@_festival Maybe it would help if you tagged the original comment? Because I spent like 5 minutes searching and couldn't find shit. You do know people have the same thoughts sometimes, right? I mean, people in different countries invented the telephone at the same damn time, you don't think that's less obvious than an stupid obvious remark about Gordon Ramsey? I swear Steve and Alexis not only helped kill the only cofounder of Reddit that gave a shit, but that Reddit's newfound culture of malignant narcississm has ruined the entire internet now that Aaron is gone. In any case, screw off with the copy pasta trying to get likes, use your words
I think what happened here is that she confused the old story that “hot water freezes faster than cold water” and thought it worked the other way around. I believe hot water freezes faster in certain conditions but even that’s up for debate.
Ok but I think there was some logic and reasoning behind this on her part; she must have thought that because warm water freezes faster than cold water, that would mean cold water boils faster than warm water. Obviously this turned out to be false, but credit where credit is due.
