Water's heat capacity (the amount of thermal energy required to increase 1kg of a substance's temperature by 1K) is about 10x larger than that of steel (I assume the S stands for that) EDIT: just realized steel has about 8x the density of water so... that's counteracting that
That thing had actually absurd amounts of thermal energy. Not only was it able to melt through the ice( one of the most energy demanding substances to melt) but it still had enough energy to heat the water to 100 degrees and boil it, a process that uses hundreds of thousands of Joules. If someone could tell me the name and make up of that ball I'd be super interested.
That's exactly what I was thinking about, I'm guessing the water and air bubbles helped a little bit, but even then it took quite a bit of time to get to the bottom of the ice cube
I think MRHSB is Medium Red Hot Steel Ball. Other shorts on this channel use copper and aluminum/copper alloys. Steel has a lot more mass and (I believe) lower thermal conductivity than the others, so it would take quite a lot of energy to heat it up as well as cool it down. Thus, you have the result seen here.
@@masterhack353bro. Can people be ever satisfied with what they have? Like come on. Stop complaining. "You've wasted energy trying to type this and I've wasted braincells trying to figure what made you to type thi-" 🤓
@@Lecherifien293 Ça ne veut pas dire que à 5 ans ils le seront. D'ailleurs pourquoi tu réponds en français à un commentaire anglais que tu as compris, sinon tu n'aurais pas repondu du tout?
Fun fact: the reason why the ice is melting is because the ball is hot edit: I know this might seem extremely unlikely but it’s true, I took an thorough analysis and I can confirm that its 100% true, thank me later.
The reason why it didn’t lose its heat evenly is because of the steam jacket it was creating. You can actually bend a piece of metal by heating it up and swishing it in water. Pretty cool
