Question

why does the temperature decreases with increase with increase in height

Answer 1

When we move to high altitude the atmospheric pressure decreses.We know that pressure is directly propositional to temperature that's why temperature decreases.

Answer 2

The temperature will decrease with the increase in height because:

• The atmospheric pressure will fall that will directly decrease the temperature.

• The concentration of the greenhouse gases will decrease which will decrease the temperature.

• Carbon dioxide and water vapour will increase sharply as we will move upward which will result in the decrement of the capacity of heat absorption.
