Do oceanic crust hot spot volcanoes tend to erupt more explosively than other volcanoes?

No they do not erupt more explosively. It all depends on the gas and the viscosity. An example is Kilauea in Hawaii because it does not erupt explosively.

How do cinder cone volcanos erupt?

Cinder cone volcanoes erupt explosively, but not as violently as composite volcanoes.

Is the outer core called a crust?

Yes it is called the outer core because they feed volcanoes that explosively erupt.


Do hot spot volcanoes tend to erupt more explosively than other volcanoes?

The source is not as important as the gas content and viscosity. For example, Kilauea in Hawaii doesn't erupt very explosively; it is just a fire fountain. The more explosive volcanoes are those with a blocked magma chamber that builds pressure under a solid surface. Hotspot volcanoes tend to be less explosive because most are on the seafloor.


Does a composite volcano have a high gas content?

Yes. Composite volcanoes often have a high gas content in their magma, which is why they often erupt explosively.


Where are volcanoes that erupt in both ways located?

The volcanoes that erupt both ways are located on or near boundaries between oceanic and continental crust over subduction zones.


Volcanoes that are quiet are what kind of volcanoes?

Quiet volcanoes can be either dormant or extinct. An extinct volcano, as you may have guessed, has not erupted for a very long period of time and will not erupt in the future. A dormant volcano, however, is just sleeping. You probably get up all groggy after a good sleep.If you mean volcanoes that erupt quietly, as in not explosively, then those are generally shield volcanoes.
