Question

euplain why the temperature decrease
with height in the
in the lower
atmosphere​

Answer 1

Hope It Helps...

Explanation:

PV = nRT

since, V, n an R are constant, temperature decreases with the decrease in pressure and we know that, pressure decreases at higher altitudes.

Answer 2

Answer:

Hope it will help

Explanation:

In the troposphere, the temperature generally decreases with altitude. The reason is that the troposphere's gases absorb very little of the incoming solar radiation. Instead, the ground absorbs this radiation and then heats the tropospheric air by conduction and convection

There are several reasons for what aviators and meteorologists AFAIK, refer to as the Adiabatic Lapse Rate (ALR). Officially it is -1.98°C per 1000ft ascending (unorthodox mix of units but that's how it is with aviation) in the standard atmosphere being 15°C and absolute pressure of 101.325kPa.
