Why is the temperature so low at mountain Everest?

Answer 1

On Earth, heat travels by

radiation, convection,

and conduction.

On Earth on a sunny day,

the heat radiating from

the Sun warms the

molecules of the

atmosphere, and they

warm other molecules

and they warm others in

turn. That conduction is

what keeps the Earth

warm at night when we

aren't receiving direct

Sun rays. It also means

that even when we are

standing in shadow, the

air around us has some

warmth. On Earth, heat

also travels in large

density-driven

convection loops that

spread out the warmth.

At height Air has low

pressure so temprature

is LOW.

Answer 2

The temperature is low at Mount Everest due to its high altitude. As altitude increases, the air pressure decreases, causing the air to expand and cool. Additionally, the peak of Mount Everest is covered in snow and ice, which further contributes to the cold temperatures.
