Why the temperature reduces while going to top of the hills
  • 1 answers

Meghna Thapar 4 years, 4 months ago

As you go to higher altitudes, there are less air molecules pushing down on you (lower pressure). When the pressure of a gas decreases, the temperature also decreases (the reverse is also true – when the gas pressure increases, the temperature increases). Therefore, the air temperature is lower at higher altitudes. Because as you go up from Surface level to higher altitudes the temperature decreases in atmosphere mainly in Troposphere. ... This is the reason why hill stations have low temperature.
