Why does it get colder at higher altitudes?
Page:
As the heated air molecules rise, they 'burn' energy. When that energy is burnt out, the air molecules fall again, where they are re-energised and rise, to then burn off that energy and fall.
Simple.
That's why the air is thinner nearer the edge of the planet's atmosphere. The molecules are closer to the emptiness of space where there is very little energy (and heat), and so the gravity pulls them back down to rise again.

Oh well....

Not supposed to put anything hot in a household freezer, as far as I know.

If you put hot water in a freezer and room temperature water in a freezer.
The hot water will freeze first!

Hot Air rises until it gets to a certain height, then it condenses and turns into a cloud where it becomes heavier and begins to fall and then it rains. Then the rain droplets evapourate and everything starts again.
the kettle thing is because hotter heat cools down quicker and then slows down.
Ouch!

Of course, but nobody is that stupid.

And also if you put your hand above the spout of a boiling kettle, you will find you dont need to move your hand very far up before the hot air becomes much cooler.
