Question

Give reason : Why does the food takes a longer time to cook on the peak of the mountain?​

Answer 1

Explanation:

The key factor is declining air pressure at higher altitudes. Falling air pressure lowers the boiling point of water by just under 1 degree Fahrenheit for each 500 feet of increased elevation. ... Any food prepared with moist-heat methods, like boiling or simmering, will take longer to become fully cooked.
