Why is a fur coat warmer inside out?
Insulation is mainly a question of the amount of trapped air, and inside-out traps more air against you.
Why is a fur coat warmer if the fur is on the inside?
The fur lining of a coat creates what are called dead air spaces inside that coat. Air in these tiny spaces will warm up from body heat, but because the air can't move around very well, convection is kept to a minimum. The fur has thus created a layer of insulation inside the shell of the jacket, and this will reduce heat loss. Fur on the inside of a coat will thus act to keep the wearer warmer than if the fur was on the outside.A classic example of the application of this idea is the sheepskin coat. The leather side is out, and the wool (the fur) acts as the lining. The wool creates myriad dead air spaces, and there is no large-scale convection happening. This minimizes the conduction of heat away from the body and out to where it is lost. These coats work so well that they can actually be uncomfortably warm on anything but a truly cold day. Use the link below to view images of the sheepskin jacket and consider the effect of the lining.
Why does your kettle fur up?
Kettles might fur up due to mineral deposits in the water, such as calcium and limescale, that accumulate over time as the water is heated. These minerals solidify and form a layer of scale on the inside of the kettle, especially if the water is hard. Regular descaling can help prevent this buildup and keep your kettle functioning properly.
What happens when you rub a lucite rod with fur?
Rubbing a lucite rod with fur causes the rod to become charged by friction. Electrons are transferred from the fur to the lucite rod, giving the rod a negative charge and the fur a positive charge. This is known as triboelectric charging.
What happens when a plastic rod is rubbed with a Peace of fur?
Rubbing a plastic rod with a piece of fur causes the transfer of electrons between the two materials. The plastic rod becomes charged negatively, while the fur becomes positively charged. This is known as triboelectric charging.
