How do volcanoes that form over a hot spot differ from volcanoes that form at convergent plate boundaries?

The convergent mountains usually come in ranges, rather than solitary peaks.

Is Mount Vesuvius near a hot spot divergent or convergent plate boundary?
Vesuvius is associated with a convergent boundary between the African Plate and the Eurasian Plate.
Which of these convergent plate boundaries are active volcanoes not likely to be located?
Arabian Plate and Eurasian plate
What convergent plate boundaries are active volcanoes not likely to be located?
Arabian plate and Eurasian plate.
Volcanoes that form along convergent plate boundaries are located?
at the edge of plate collisions
What type of plate boundary causes volcanic eruptions?
There are two plate boundaries that cause volcanoes. They are the divergent and convergent plate boundaries.

What type of plate boundary causes volcanic eruptions?
There are two plate boundaries that cause volcanoes. They are the divergent and convergent plate boundaries.
How does plate tectonics play a role in the formation and eruption and volcanoes?
Volcanoes and volcanic activity occurs at plate boundaries. Especially when one plate over rides another plate - convergent boundary. As a result of pressure, friction, and plate material melting in the mantle, earthquakes and volcanoes are common near convergent boundaries.
Which type of plate boundaries produce volcanoes?
Continental and Oceanic plates.
What kind of boundaries can cause earthquakes and volcanoes?
Earthquakes can occur at any type of plate boundary, but the most powerful earthquakes tend to occur at convergent boundaries and at transform boundaries.
What kinds of volcanoes form on converging plate boundaries?
Composite cone volcanos are the most common.. Shielding and other types are results from a divergent boundary.
What is a fault of a volcano?
A volcano is not a type of fault. Volcanoes can be found at convergent and divergent plate boundaries and away from plate boundaries at hot spots.
At which type of plate boundary does rift-volcanism occur?
Volcanoes can be formed on both convergent and divergent boundaries.
What type of fault is a volcano?
A volcano is not a type of fault. Volcanoes can be found at convergent and divergent plate boundaries and away from plate boundaries at hot spots.
