Mass rock formed when a volcano's magma chamber empties and collapses?
A mass rock is formed when a volcano's magma chamber empties and the overlying rock collapses into the empty chamber. This creates a steep-walled depression or caldera at the volcano's summit. It is a common feature of collapsed volcanoes.
Formed when magma chamber empties and its roof collapses?
Its called a "caldera".
What is a large hole formed when volcanoes magma chamber empties and collapse?
caldera
Is this correct pyroclastic flows from composite cone volcanoes are known as calderas?
No. They are simply called pyroclastic flows. A caldera is a depression formed in the ground when a volcano, usually a composite volcano, collapses as the magma chamber partially empties during an especially violent eruption.
What is the large circular depression at the top of a volcano that forms when the roof of the magma chamber collapses?
The large circular depression at the top of a volcano that forms when the roof of the magma chamber collapses is called a caldera. Calderas can be huge in size and are formed during explosive volcanic eruptions or when the magma chamber empties and the summit collapses into the void left behind.
When a volcano collapses into itself at its top it forms a?
When a volcano collapses into itself at its top, it forms a large crater called a caldera. Calderas are formed when the magma chamber of a volcano empties during an eruption, causing the summit to collapse inward.
What is the crater called if it becomes very large as a result of the collapse of its walls?
A crater that becomes very large as a result of the collapse of its walls is called a caldera. Calderas are typically formed after a volcanic eruption when the magma chamber empties and the summit collapses into the void below.
What is formed when the top of a volcano collapses into a partially emptied magma chamber?
what happens is that it forms a caldera
What is the large hole of a volcano formed when the roof of a volcanoes magama chamber collapes csalled?
caldera
What forms at the top of a volcanoe mountain when it collapses?
Most volcanoes, when they finish erupting, leave a crater behind when the magma retreats down the volcanic pipe. Occasionally this will fill with water to leave a lake.A large surface explosion will leave behind a Caldera - a broad area possibly still of geothermal activity. Such as Yellowstone, or Okataina.
The collapse of a volcanos magma chamber may produce a?
caldera
What happen to create a caldera?
Calderas form during massive explosve volcanic eruptions. In such eruptions so much material is expelled that it leaves a large empty space under the volcano. The volcano then collapses into this space, forming a giant crater.
