Why is the temperatureat the top of a mountain cooler than at the bottom of the mountain?
It is cooler on top of a mountain than it is below because the sun's rays do not heat the atmosphere directly. The sun's rays bump into dust particles, splitting into different directions. therefore, as the sun ray's reach the the crust, the soil on the ground insulates more heat as it is located near the timberline where the soil insulates more heat.
What is the air pressure at the top of the mountain compared to the bottom of the mountain?
The air at the top of the mountain is going to be much less dense than the air at the bottom of the mountain because it is affected less by gravity.
Why is the temperature at the top of a mountain cooler than that at the bottom of the mountain?
In matters of height i will assume you are talking about a rather size-able mountain, along the lines of something like Mt. Rainier In Washington state. or Mt. Saint Hellens ( before she blew her top ) The reason the top of a mountain is colder than the bottom is quite simple. The air you breathe is called Atmosphere the closer to the surface of the earth the denser the Atmosphere. As you ascend a mountain, or gain altitude the Atmospheric Pressure reduces. This reduction in the density of the atmosphere does not allow for the storage of the same amount of heat as lower altitudes. There are many layers of atmosphere, and some Mountains can penetrate several of them. I have included a link to an image pulled from Google image search to further illustrate. See Related Link
Are compressors supposed to be cold from top to bottom?
In general, compressors should be cooler at the top than at the bottom. This is because the cooling system typically starts at the top and moves downwards to prevent overheating. If a compressor is uniformly cold from top to bottom, it may indicate a cooling system issue or inefficient heat dissipation.
Why does the weight of a stone is less at the top of a mountain than at its bottom?
The weight of a stone at the top of a mountain is less than at its bottom because the gravitational force decreases with distance from the center of the Earth. Therefore, at higher altitudes, the force of gravity pulling the stone towards the center of the Earth is slightly weaker, resulting in a lower weight reading on a scale.
Is it cooler at the top of a mountain than at the bottom?
i dont know

What is the depth of an underwater mountain?
An underwater mountain has height from the ocean bottom, the top and bottom of the mountain have depth from the surface of the water.
What is the highest mountain from top to bottom?
Mauna Kea in Hawaii is the tallest mountain in the world when measured from base to summit. Most of Mauna Kea is underwater, with its base at the bottom of the sea, making it taller than Mount Everest.
A student opens the top window and the bottom window in a hot room warmer air goes out the top window while cooler air comes in the bottom window why does the room become cooler?
The room becomes cooler because warmer air goes out, and cooler air comes in.
Is the in on the oil cooler on a 1995 Tahoe on the top or bottom?
Yes, that is correct
When using a bottom to top shelving what determines the best placement of of food in a cooler?
the top shelf

Why do heated fluids rise using the particle theory?
Heated fluids are less dense than their cooler counterparts. For example, water at 80 degrees F is less dense than water at 75 degrees F. Therefore, because it is less dense, it rises above the cooler fluid. This happens all the time when boiling water. The water at the bottom becomes more heated than the water at the top, and so rises to the top, moving the cooler water to the bottom of the pot, which then becomes heated and pushes the now cooler water that used to be on bottom back to the bottom, restarting the whole process. This is known as convection.
Is air pressure the greatest at the top of a mountain?
no, at bottom
