Cinder Cones are composed of rock fragments and the eruption of cinders. The rock fragments pile up around a single crater forming a Cinder Cone.
What else can I help you with?
Why does a cinder cone have steep sides?
Cinder cones are not made from lava flows. They are made of fragments of righ that have piled up and rest at their angle of repose.
How many cinder cones are there?
their are 6 cinder cone volcanes
What types of slopes do cinder cones have?
Cinder cones generally have a very steep slope. This slope is also considered gentle compared to the cones' short height.
Are cinder cones formed by low pressure?
no
Are cinder cones volcanoes steep?
yes
What is a cinder cones type of eruption?
explosive
Are cinder cones explosive or gentle?
explosive
Do cinder cones erupt silently or explosivley?
Cinder cone volcanoes erupt explosivly.
Do cinder cone volcanoes have granitic magma?
No. Cinder cones are formed by basaltic magma.
Are cinder cones usually found at the edge of large volcanoes?
Yes, although technically, strato-volcanoes *are* cinder cones (composite cones), built up of layers of ash. But the term "cinder cones" (ash cones) is usually applied to smaller cones that form within the vicinity of large volcanic calderas, such as Crater Lake in Oregon. They may be associated with either strato-volcanoes or shield volcanoes.
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 small volcanic cones made entirely of pyroclastic material?
Cinder cones are small volcanic cones made entirely of pyroclastic material, such as ash, cinders, and volcanic rocks. They form from explosive eruptions that eject these materials into the air, which then accumulate and solidify around the vent, creating a cone-shaped structure.
