As you climb higher up a mountain does the air get hotter or colder?
As you climb a mountain the air gets colder.
When weather gets colder the air pressure usally goes up Why does this happpen?
Colder air is denser than warmer air, causing it to sink and create higher pressure at the surface. This is because the molecules in cold air are packed more closely together, exerting a greater force per unit area. This explains why air pressure tends to increase when the weather gets colder.
Why is it that when you go up a mountain you get colder because your near to the sun?
because air pressure decreases as altitude increases. As air rises, the pressure decreases. It is the lower pressure at higher altitude that causes temperature to be colder on the top of a mountain compared to sea level.
If you go to a mountaintop closer to the sun why is it colder?
The sun is very far away, it takes light form the Sun 8 minutes to reach the Earth. At this scale the difference in height between the top of a mountain and the beach is insignificant, both places receive the same amount of light/heat form the Sun. What makes the mountain top cold is vertical variation in temperature caused by the earths atmosphere. As you go up form sea level, the air cools by about one degree Centigrade for every 300 feet you go up. Thus as you are surrounded by colder air, it is colder on the top of a mountain - (or looking at it another way, the mountain pokes up into a region of colder air). Look at the link I will place below for more information on air temperature.
Tajikistan has a colder climate and thinner air This is because?
Tajikistan has a colder climate due to its high elevation and mountainous terrain, which results in thinner air. The higher altitude leads to lower temperatures and reduced air pressure, making it feel colder compared to lower elevations.
When you get higher in the atmosphere does the air get warmer or colder?
colder, the farther up you go, the lower the tempurature
When you climb higher what happens to you?
when you climb higher you will get colder and colder when you go higher.2. it dosent have much air when you get up so take breathing equietment.
Why is the air colder at higher altitudes?
The air is colder at higher altitudes because the air pressure decreases as you go higher up in the atmosphere. This decrease in pressure causes the air molecules to spread out and move more slowly, resulting in lower temperatures.
As you climb higher up a mountain does the air get hotter or colder?
As you climb a mountain the air gets colder.
Why are higher altitudes colder than lower altitudes?
Higher altitudes are colder than lower altitudes because the air pressure decreases as you go higher up, causing the air molecules to spread out and the temperature to drop.
Would you get hotter or colder as you went higher up in the atmosphere?
Upto Ozon Layer it get colder and then start increasing the temperature.......
does a mountain get hotter or colder as you go up?
Most often, the air at higher elevations is cooler than the air at lower elevations. The act of your climbing the mountain has no effect on it.
Does warmer air push up colder air?
No, cold air pushes up warmer air because the warmer air is less dense.
Is it colder underground or up in the air on Venus the planet?
on the ground
Why is it colder the higher you go in altitude?
As you go higher in altitude, the air becomes thinner and less dense. Thinner air is not able to hold heat as well as denser air, so the temperature decreases with increasing altitude. This is why it is colder the higher you go in altitude.
