Why is seattle warmer in the winter than yellowstone answers?

Seattle and Yellowstone, both are located at the same latitudes but they experience different types of weather conditions. Seattle is in the western part of North America and is a low elevated area in comparison to the Yellowstone.  

Seattle experiences a comparatively warmer temperature than the Yellowstone. It is due to the low elevation of Seattle i.e only about 160m from the mean sea level. Within this region, the air molecules are quite dense and tightly packed. Due to which it starts contracting and subsequently gets heated up forming a much warmer air mass. But Yellowstone lies at about 2500m above the mean sea level. At this high elevation, the molecules of air are very less and they remain scattered. Due to this, the expansion of air molecules takes place and eventually, it cools.

Therefore, Seattle remains warmer as compared to Yellowstone during the winter season.

1. (1.2kw)x(15/60hours) = .3kwh --> a

2. (5kw)x(90/60hours)x(8cents/kwh) = $0.60 --> d

3. microwave --> 1200 watts = (1.2kw)x(6/60hours) = .12kwh

coffee-maker --> 900 watts = (.9kw)x(10/60hours) = .15kwh

therefore, it requires more energy for the coffee-maker to do the same amount of work.

so the answer is a.

for  example, forests have higher evapotranspiration than other ecosystems,  such  as grasslands, because of their deeper roots and greater leaf area. thus forests have a net moistening effect on the atmosphere and become a moisture source for downwind ecosystems.
