Is lava on a dome volcano shoot out lava or slow flow lava?
It is very slow flowing lava, so slow you can't even see it moving. However this can change, as magma from below can produce a violent explosion.
What type of volcanoe is mauna loa?
It is a shield volcano. Rifts typically open in the seaward flanks, with lava fountains and slow-moving lava flows to the ocean.
Thinner easy flowing lavas are rich in?
Thin, easy flowing lava is usually rich in iron and magnesium. Thick, slow moving lava is usually rich in silica.
What is the shape of a volcano formed by fast-flowing lava?
Well it depends on how bad the lava flow is. If the lava is flowing slow then the shape of the volcano won't change much, But if it flows with force then bits of the volcano will fall off and change the shape of the volcano. Hope this answer helps!!
What are two characteristics of quiet eruptions?
Quiet volcanos are ones that explode slowly. Two characteristics of quiet eruptions are slow flowing lava and broad sheets of lava. The lava from a quiet eruption stays runny and flowing for a longer period of time than an explosive eruption does.
Does Mauna Loa have slow gentle lava?
Mauna Loa does not have slow gentle flowing lava
Does Mauna loa have slow flowing lava?
Mauna Loa does not have slow gentle flowing lava
Has mauna loa destroy any homes?
No,Mauna Loa hasn't destroy any homes it has very low silica and slow lava flow

How do you say lava in hawiian?

Can trees stop lava?
Generally, no. In unusual circumstances, possibly. If there were only a tiny bit of lava flowing at a very slow pace, then it would be conceivable that an average sort of tree could stop the lava.
Why do gentle sloping wide rivers have more meanders than steep fast-flowing rivers?
Fast flowing rivers are more erosive and are light on the deposition of sediments. Slow flowing rivers allow for the deposition of sediment which create the meanders.
Contrast shield volcanoes and cinder-cones volcanoes?
Shield volcanoes are very wide and very long. They are formed by the slow, elongated flow of lava. Mauna Loa and Mauna Kea in Hawaii are two examples. Cinder cone volcanoes are smaller, more upright volcanoes formed by the fragments and remains of a magma vent. These rocks can be shiny like obsidian or occaisonally dull like the hole-filled black lava rocks.
