What volcanoes erupt gently?
Shield volcanoes erupt least violently cinder cone most violently and compost can erupt either way.
How do cinder cone volcanos erupt?
Cinder cone volcanoes erupt explosively, but not as violently as composite volcanoes.
Do cinder cones erupt silently or explosivley?
Cinder cone volcanoes erupt explosivly.
Are cinder cone volcanoes gentle and long-lasting?
No. Cinder cones usually produce relatively explosive eruptions and are short-lived. Some only erupt for a few years before going extinct.
Why do cinder cone volcanoes erupt ash and rock?
they are made out of rock
What are the three major types of valcanos?
The three major types of volcanoes are shield volcanoes, cinder cone volcanoes, and stratovolcanoes. Shield volcanoes have broad, gently sloping sides and are primarily composed of basaltic lava. Cinder cone volcanoes are small, steep-sided volcanoes that erupt primarily cinder-sized fragments. Stratovolcanoes are tall, conical volcanoes composed of alternating layers of lava flows, volcanic ash, and other materials.
Do cinder cones erupt felsic or mafic lava?
Composite volcanoes can erupt both mafic and felsic material, but intermediate material is the most common.
What is similar about cinder cone volcanoes and shield volcanoes?
Both shield volcanoes and cinder cones erupt low-viscosity basaltic lava and have eruptions that are only mildly explosive if at all.Cinder cones are small, steep-sloped volcanoes composed primarily of a chunky variety of basalt called scoria.Shield volcanoes are large, gently sloping volcanoes composed primarily of layers of lava flows.
How are shield volcanoes and cinder cone volcanoes somewhat same?
Both erupt basaltic lava, which has a low silica content and a high temperature.
What are the differences between the 3 types of volcanoes?
Active volcanoes are erupting or has erupted recently. Dormant volcanoes haven't been erupting recently, but may erupt in the future. They could be considered "sleeping". Extinct volcanoes will never erupt again.
What do cinder cone volcanoes erupt?
When a Cinder Cone volcano erupts it shoots out ash, and that's how they form also, ash builds up on there sides and grow taller and taller every time a cinder cone erupts. Hope this helps!
Is hot gases the only thing that come out of a cinder volcano?
No. Cinder cone volcanoes erupt fountains of lava, which is how the cinder cone is built up. Cinder cones that are nearing the end of activity may also produce lava flows.
