Where is faster to boil on top of the mountain or on the ground of a mountain?

on the top of the mountain as pressure is greater so water will boil quicker

Does water boil faster at sea level than on the top of a mountain?
Water boils faster on top of a mountain than at sea level because the boiling point of water is reduced with reduced atmospheric pressure.
Will water boil at 100C at the top of a mountain?
no because at the top of the mountain its less pressure than at the sea level so it will take more time to boil
Where does water boil at less than 100 degrees Celsius?
On top of a mountain
Predict whether water would boil on top of a mountain at a higher or lower temperature than at sea level?
Water would boil higher at the top of a mountain than at sea level. This is because there is less atmospheric pressure at higher elevations.
Why do the rocks at the peak of a mountain weather faster than the rocks at the bottom of the mountain?
Why do the rocks at the top of a moutain peak weather faster the ones at the bottom
How would the period of the simple pendulum be change if the pendulum is moved from the sea level to the top of the high mountain?
It's faster at sea level and slower at the top of a mountain.
How is a rock on top of a mountain the same as a rock under ground?
Some mountains are build and produced underground, so technically it would be a rock on top of a mountain underground. :)
Why is it warmer on the ground then on top of a mountain?
It is colder on mountains because wind pushes more clouds and cold rushes up to the top of the curve of the mountain and the same on the other side into the sky.
Why Poes water on top of a mountain boil at a lower temperature than at sea level?
It is the effect of air pressure. The air pressure at the top of a mountain is less than the air pressure at sea level. The effect of air pressure on a water surface is to prevent or oppose water molecules escaping from the surface. The greater the air pressure, the more heat energy is needed to allow the water molecules to escape and so at sea level the water will boil at a higher temperature than if it were on top of a mountain.
Why erosion is faster in a very dry ground?
erosion is faster in a very dry ground because there is no enough moisture in the soil to hold it, thus allowing the wind to carry the top soil, then erosion happens....
What is the difference between a person on a mountain and a person on the bottom of the mountain?
A person on top a mountain, if that is what you mean, will get really cold because always on top of a mountain it is really chilly. While a person on the bottom of a mountain will just be warm, not high off the ground. is wrong because the mountain might not be that big so it wont be cold
Does sound travel faster in desert or mountain air?
The speed of sound depends only on the temperature of the gas for an ideal gas. This implies that the ambient pressure on top of a mountain doesn't affect the propagation of sound in air. So the speed of sound should be larger in hot desert air compared to cold air on a mountain top.
