Question

why are higher altitudes cooler than lower altitudes?(social 8th class)​

Answer 1

Explanation:

As you go to higher altitudes, there are less air molecules pushing down on you (lower pressure). When the pressure of a gas decreases, the temperature also decreases (the reverse is also true – when the gas pressure increases, the temperature increases). Therefore, the air temperature is lower at higher altitudes.

Answer 2

Answer:

when we move higher and higher from the earth's surface the temperature decreases. so in this way we can say that higher altitudes are cooler then lower altitudes
