We have a stone statuette that always appears to be cold, always colder than the ambient temperature, and than any other objects(wood, fabric, etc).
1- What us with that, how does that work? I would have thought after a number of days or months it would reach the same temperature as every other object in the room, why not?
An other thought. Ive read somewhere that Fluaescent colors appear brighter because they reflect UV light at a different wavelength that of the color (if I understand correclty if something is orange fluo, you see the typical light reflected by orange objects plus some of the UV that's added to the light of that spectrum).
2- If this is true, my Question is, can something similar occur with infrared, where infrared is reflected as non-infrared light and thus might appear to be less warm?
