Question

How does the climate in the hills compare with that in the plains

Answer 1

Answer:

There are many reasons. The hot air is lighter and it rises above leaving cold air below.Pressure decreases as altitude increases. Which means the wind flows from high to low pressure areas, that is from plains to hills. The hot winds meeting low pressured hills expand at once and cool down. That could be one reason why hills are cooler.One easy understanding is 4 degree centigrade change occurs in 500 meters altitude upwards. So it's only natural that room temperature is much lower in hills. The reason of cold climate in hills than plains is because of the adiabatic nature of Earth's atmosphere.
