Water and other fluids boil at a lower temperature at high altitudes. When a liquid boils its temperature stops rising. If a recipe that calls for cooking something for a certain amount of time after it begins to boil, there is an implied assumption the cooking process is taking place at sea level. Therefore, you need to adjust your cooking time for a longer period of time at higher altitudes since the cooking temperature is lower than what it would be at sea level. That is why it takes longer to boil an egg in, say, Denver, Colorado than it does in Miami, Florida. See Sources and related links for various links to cooking at high altitudes.
What else can I help you with?
Why does it take food longer to cook at higher elevations?
At higher elevations the boiling point is lower.
Would you expect to have a longer or shorter cooking time at a high elevation?
Longer. The higher elevation causes the boiling point to decrease. Cook longer at higher elevations.
Why does weathering occur faster in higher elevations?
weathering occurs faster at high elevations because
What is a treeline called at high elevations?
Timer line
Why do objects at high elevation have more potential energy than objects at low elevations?
Because gravity gives objects at high elevations the potential to fall much further.
How long does altitude acclimatization typically last for individuals adjusting to high elevations?
Altitude acclimatization typically lasts for about 1-3 weeks for individuals adjusting to high elevations.
Why is it hard to live in high elevations?
because its hard to breath
WHAT HAPPENS AT THE RIFT VALLEY?
the water is getting to high elevations
What is a characteristic of places at high elevations?
Low air pressure.
What does at high elevations mean?
It means something is high in the air. A good example of this is a in-flight airplane at a high elevation.
What is a high relief?
high relief map is a map with a lot of mountains, or a lot of different elevations.
Why can't rivers be divides?
because they are not high points of elevations and divides are high points of elevation
