When are Volcanoes and earthquakes are likely to occur?
They are more likely to occur on places/countries that are on Tectonic plate boundaries. This is because a tectonic plate boundary is when earth is raised above the normal level causing the ground to shake. When the earth rises it can form small volcanoes that get bigger and it will erupt a lot after then. :D
Where are volcanoes that erupt in both ways?
The volcanoes that erupt both ways are located on or near boundaries between oceanic and continental crust over subduction zones.
What does movement along plate boundaries cause?
Earthquakes, volcanoes to erupt, mountains, etc...
Do volcanoes erupt in warm countries only?
No. Where volcanoes appear is not affected by climate. There are volcanoes in places such as Iceland, Alaska, and Antarctica.
How are active volcanoes and dormant alike?
Active volcanoes and dormant volcanoes both have a likely chance to erupt and have erupted in the past.
Where do volcanoes occur most frequentley?
Volcanic eruptions occur only in certain places and do not occur randomly. ... Volcanoes occur most frequently at plate boundaries
Do volcanoes erupt in places where two of the earths plates meet?
yes sometimes
Do volcanoes erupt for the same reasons?
Yes, all volcanoes erupt because the magma underneath or in the volcano is under pressure, which forces the magma to the surface, where there is less pressure. However, volcanoes form in different places.
What is the most common place a volcano might erupt?
There is a region in the Pacific Ocean called the Ring of Fire, and it is home to many of the world's earthquakes and volcanoes. It has 452 volcanoes and it is home to 75% of the world's dormant and active volcanoes. Besides that, many islands and island nations have volcanoes, such as Hawaii and Japan. Also, 80-90% of all volcanoes occur near tectonic plate boundaries that spread apart.
Why do volcanoes erupt by boundaries the most?
Volcanoes often erupt at boundaries because this is where tectonic plates interact, causing intense heat and pressure to build up beneath the Earth's surface. This leads to the melting of rock and the formation of magma, which can eventually erupt as lava and volcanic ash through the volcano's vent.
What do you mean by active and inactive volcano?
Active volcanoes are likely to erupt at any time where as inactive volcanoes are 'asleep' or haven't erupted much in the past and are unlikely to erupt in the near future.
Do tsunamis erupt?
No. Volcanoes erupt.
