@@12KTheTopChamp I can literally remove the jewellery before going to pool tho. You do have a point. But, what if I lose my jewelry? 💀(Not to mention that gold is expensive)
I’m surprised no one has commented that the fork you were using at the start has a wooden handle which acts as an insulator. So no heat can be conducted from your hand to melt the ice?!
actually, the different still far between fork without wood handle and silver. i tried this at home with my silver bar 999 1gram and fork without any wood handle. the different when silver cutting through the ice is so easily
even if there were no wooden handle, how far from the tip he is holding the fork whereas in case of silver he is holding it very close from the part that is touching the ice.
Being curious, I looked it up on ChatGPT and found the information interesting... *Yes, silver can melt ice faster than most alloy steel metals!* This comes down to its exceptional thermal conductivity. Here's why: *Thermal Conductivity:* Silver has the highest thermal conductivity of all metals at room temperature, meaning it can transfer heat energy incredibly efficiently. This makes it ideal for applications where rapid heat transfer is desired, like soldering or cooking. Steel, even alloy steel, has significantly lower thermal conductivity compared to silver. This means it will take longer for heat to transfer from its surface to the ice, resulting in slower melting. Additional Factors: Surface area: The larger the surface area of the metal in contact with the ice, the faster the heat transfer and melting will occur. So, a thin sheet of silver would melt ice faster than a thick steel bar of the same weight. Initial temperature: The starting temperature of both the metal and the ice also influences the melting rate. A warmer metal will naturally melt ice faster than a colder one, regardless of the material. Therefore, in most situations, silver will melt ice significantly faster than most alloy steel metals due to its superior thermal conductivity. However, other factors like surface area and initial temperature can also play a role. Here are some interesting facts to illustrate the difference: Silver can conduct heat 17 times faster than stainless steel. If you hold a silver bar and a steel bar of the same size in your hand, the silver bar will feel much colder because it rapidly draws heat away from your skin. So, if you're looking for a quick and efficient way to melt ice, silver is definitely the best choice among these two materials! I hope this explanation clarifies the reasons behind silver's advantage in melting ice.
thank you for this, I've just received some samples from a supplier who's prices made me wary. I don't trust my magnet 100% and like to have more than one test to use, but I don't have the acid for testing. this test is simple and the effect is very notable, the effect is striking, unmistakable. I can now buy with confidence from said supplier, obviously I will continue to test. You've saved me some concern, thank you for sharing ❤
I tested this out since my little brother wanted to see if This worked i have a silver necklace and a stainless steel necklace and held them for the same amount of time and thay actually both melted the ice the same much so thanks for wasting my time and everyone elses that believes this video
There are pure .999 jewry now , that dont tarnish and it is hard no soft because they are compressed and arc soldered. So you dont have to clean it, shining all the time and it is brilliant white, just pure silver, no like stearling silver that is .925 silver alloyed with copper. Look it up.
@@morpher728 well the heat capacity of the bigger piece is higher and the length for the heat diffusion is clearly effecting the time it takes for his body heat to reach the end of the metal. So you think it wouldnt make a difference if he would touch a railway track a mile away or a small needle an inch away?
