On average, the temperature drops approximately 3.5°F for every 1,000 feet increase in elevation. This phenomenon is known as the environmental lapse rate and is a key factor in understanding how temperature changes with altitude in the atmosphere.
The temperature at 25,000 feet would be 12 degrees. This can be calculated by taking the ground temperature of 62 degrees and subtracting 2 degrees for every 1,000 feet (25,000 feet ÷ 1,000 feet = 25; 25 x 2 degrees = 50 degrees; 62 degrees - 50 degrees = 12 degrees).
Places at higher elevations have cooler temperatures because the air becomes less dense as elevation increases. This results in lower atmospheric pressure and less ability to trap heat, causing temperatures to drop. Additionally, higher elevations are often closer to the upper atmosphere, where temperatures are lower.

The ecologist most likely encountered changes in temperature as they drove up the mountain. As altitude increases, temperatures typically drop due to the change in elevation. This change in temperature can have a significant impact on the types of plants and animals that are able to survive at higher altitudes.
Before it was formed, a hanging valley would appear as a tributary valley with a noticeable drop in elevation compared to the main valley it feeds into. This drop in elevation usually results in a steep cliff or waterfall where the two valleys meet.
The average temperature drops by about 3.5F per 1000 feet of elevation gain.
A very general rule of thumb used by pilots is there is roughly a 3 degree drop in temp for every 1000 feet of elevation.
The rate of temperature drop per 1000 feet in altitude is approximately 3.5F.
In the Andes, temperature generally decreases with increasing elevation due to the lapse rate, which causes cooler temperatures at higher altitudes. On average, for every 1,000 feet increase in elevation, the temperature can drop by around 3.5°F to 5.4°F. This temperature variation with elevation creates diverse ecosystems and climate zones in the Andes mountain range.
In a normaly aspirated gasoline engine manifold vacuum will be 18-20"hg at sea level. you will drop approx. 1"hg manifold vacuum for every 1000' in elevation.
The temperature typically drops by approximately 0.98 degrees Celsius for every 100 meters of elevation gain in the Earth's atmosphere. This relationship is known as the environmental lapse rate.
Yes.
On average, the temperature drops about 1 degree Celsius for every 100 meters of elevation gain. This relationship is known as the environmental lapse rate. So, to lower the temperature by 1 degree Celsius, you would need to climb approximately 100 meters.
Simply find the DIFFERENCE between 75 and -51, then divide that number by 3.6. 75-(-51) 75+51 126 126/3.6=35 since its elevation gains by 1000 multiply by that number Your finall answer will be 35,000FT
Air moving from a higher elevation to a lower elevation can cause turbulence in the air stream increasing air speed at the base of an elevation drop. Air moving over water will drop in temperature causing moisture evaporation in to the atmosphere. In the winter this is sometimes called "lake effect snow"
The temperature at 25,000 feet would be 12 degrees. This can be calculated by taking the ground temperature of 62 degrees and subtracting 2 degrees for every 1,000 feet (25,000 feet ÷ 1,000 feet = 25; 25 x 2 degrees = 50 degrees; 62 degrees - 50 degrees = 12 degrees).
There is no average temperature for mountains; there is however a pretty good guideline which you can use to determine temperature at altitude. If the air is dry is about its 10 degree centigrade drop in temperature per 1000m of altitude and about 5 degrees centigrade drop per 1000 m if the air is saturated (contains a lot of moisture)
