The temperature is lower at higher altitudes, such as 25,000 feet, compared to at ground level due to a few key reasons:
Decrease in Air Pressure: As altitude increases, air pressure decreases. Lower pressure means that the air is less dense and has fewer air molecules to absorb and retain heat.
Adiabatic Cooling: As air rises, it expands due to the decreasing atmospheric pressure. This expansion causes the air to cool, a process known as adiabatic cooling. This is why temperatures drop as altitude increases.
Radiation and Heat Retention: The Earth's surface absorbs solar radiation and then re-radiates it as heat. At higher altitudes, there's less atmosphere to trap and retain this heat, so the air is cooler compared to at the ground level where heat is more effectively retained.
Temperature Inversion: In some cases, temperature inversion can occur where warmer air is trapped above cooler air. However, generally, temperatures decrease with altitude in the troposphere, the layer of the atmosphere closest to Earth where weather occurs.
So, the combination of lower air pressure, adiabatic cooling, and the reduced heat retention at higher altitudes results in cooler temperatures as you go higher.

What does high-side and low-side mean with respect to car AC's?
High side and low side refer to the pressure in the ac system. Ie The high side is the high pressure line and low side is the low pressure line.
What is the difference between low percent error and high percent error?
The difference between low percent error and high percent error is one is low and the other is high
What is the difference between a high-side and low-side motorcycle accident?
Here's the summary from Timberwoof's Motorcycle FAQ: A high-side is where the bike suddenly regains traction after beginning to skid and spits the rider over the bike. The rider typically exits on the high side of the bike�the side not closest to the ground. A low-side is simply where the bike loses traction and skids into the ground with the rider remaining on the low side of the bike�the side closest to the ground. High-sides are usually more severe. The most common high-side accident scenario is where the rider loses traction at the rear wheel (due to excessive power or over-braking), the bike starts to skid, the rider regains traction suddenly by releasing the brake or chopping the power, and the bike immediately regains traction and spits the rider over the bike and tumbles. The key to avoiding this is learning not to chop the power and not to overuse the rear brake. Low sides mean you slide out on your bum or side. High sides literally throw you over the bike into the air, often with the bike landing on top of you. Try not to high side.
Do leaves have a low or high surface area to volume ratio?
high
A wave has a low speed but a high frequencyWhat can be inferred about its wavelength?
Using the equation v=fλ, you can rearrange to get λ=v/f If the speed if low and the frequency is high, you will get a low value for the wavelength.

Find the highest and lowest element from a linked list?
To find the highest and lowest elements in a linked list, iterate the list and detect the highest and lowest elements. Details omitted ... list *head; /* pointer to first element */ list *temp; /* temp pointer list *high = null; /* pointer to high element */ list *low = null; /* pointer to low element */ for (temp=head; temp!=null; temp=temp->next) { /* iterate all elements */ if (temp == head ) { /* initial case */ high = low = temp; /* start accumulating results } else { /* otherwise */ if (higher(temp, high) high = temp; /* choose higher */ if (lower(temp, low) low = temp; /* choose lower */ } }
