Single slap assumes all kinetic into heat, which isn’t. Alot is lost to the slap sound, alot more is lost into the Flying bits of pulverised chicken bits.

The chicken has to exceed the boiling point of water for it to be cooked? Unless we’re making chicken caramels, I don’t think so.

Yes. I think, at these speeds, you have to model the chicken as a liquid.

Then might have to model for the chicken splash and chicken cavitation.

Just strap your hand open palm while riding a asteroid travelling at 10-20mps

That 205C would just be the surface temperature of the chicken, not the average

Nope. Likely an American.
When cooking, people in general like to use round numbers, like “200°C”, since a difference of 5°C in oven temperature is not a big deal.
And yet they went with some oddly specific 205°C. That only makes sense if they’re used to Fahrenheit, eyeballed a round value (like 400°F), converted it into Celsius (204.4°C), and then rounded it up to discard the decimal.
I’m also going to say they’re completely clueless when it comes to cooking - 200°C is the oven temperature. The chicken itself reaches a far lower temperature, in the 70~80°C range. By the time the chicken reached 200°C, it’s already dry and close to catching fire. (The self-ignition temperature for biological stuff is typically between 200°C and 250°C.)

Are you sure? The numbers in the tweet talk about total mass and heat capacity. So I think that means the entire bulk has that average temperature.

One thing’s for sure: a chicken slapped at 3726 mph won’t be very tasty. Or look too good.
