My friends trying to convince me that you can add friction to something and lower the temp and i wanna know what LW thinks.... To me adding friction by shaking it would not lower the temperature and make it freeze... hmmm

Replies Rhapsody Posted at 6:10 pm on July 9, 2009 Yes this is possible. It has happened to me a lot where I put stuff in the freezer, and when I take them out they are still liquid by as soon as I start to drink them they start to freeze, but with a soft ice. It is possible and it happens. DonnieDarkko Posted at 5:50 pm on July 9, 2009 Quote: from HarrySunderland at 1:47 am on July 10, 2009 Right, that's my plans for the weekend sorted. Thanks! Dexter Ward Posted at 5:49 pm on July 9, 2009 If its pure enough the water won't have a nucleation site to form ice crystals.  By shaking it you cause a nucleation site to form allowing the super-cooled water to freeze. Dexter Ward Posted at 5:47 pm on July 9, 2009 It happens with soda too if you put it in the freezer just long enough, the pressure apparently changes the freezing point just enough that it can be liquid till you open the bottle which sucks. yssuPevoLI Posted at 5:47 pm on July 9, 2009 That's not true. Once you take it out of the freezer it starts warming, then shaking it warms it more. Leannbby Posted at 5:46 pm on July 9, 2009 yeah, friction adds heat? SimShrimp Posted at 5:46 pm on July 9, 2009 It will raise the temp, not lower it. brittnutz Posted at 5:46 pm on July 9, 2009 nope they are confusing u TechnoShark Posted at 5:46 pm on July 9, 2009 More friction raises the temp. Joep0113 Posted at 5:46 pm on July 9, 2009 If your adding friction then you're heating something up. Friction doesn't make things colder O.o MushroomSatsujin Posted at 5:46 pm on July 9, 2009 Friction adds heat so I doubt it All 11 previous replies displayed.
