Composite volcanoes are highly variable in what they erupt. Most often, eruptions will release clouds of ash, pumice, and rock fragments. In some cases they fountain or extrude lava.

What kind of feature will it form if the the magma chamber empties beneath a composite volcano and then collapses?
It falls down
Which type of volcano forms a large cone-shaped mountain from alternating layers of lava flow and volcanic ash?
A volcano that forms very large lava flows and builds itself up that way is known as a shield volcano. This type of volcano may not always erupt from a central summit vent but can have satellite vents (Rift Zones) that will form long channels of lava flows going down the slopes. These volcanoes are often times known as erupting in a very placid style and although can have explosive eruptions are very very rare. A volcano of this type would be either KIlauea or Mauna Loa on the big island of hawaii.
What plates cause San Cristobal volcano to form?
The columbus plates are what caused this volcano to form.
Why might a major volcanic eruption lead to cooler temperatures over a large area around volcano?
Because when the volcano erupts it lets all the hot volcanic acid and lava out of the ground making the earth's surface cooler.
How do you make a paper mache mountain if your school is in Manhattan and you are unable to get chicken wire?
Just use cardboard as the base. Cut slightly triangular sections of cardboard out of a cardboard box and tape together to form a cone shape. If it is irregular so much the better as it will look more natural. Use strips of papier mache to cover the form completely. If you are making a volcano, leave the top and bottom open to do the volcano thing.
Is Mount Pinatubo a shield volcano a composite volcano or a cinder cone volcano?
Taal volcano is also a high land form but has a mouth or an opening called a crater
Is Mauna Loa volcano a shield volcano a composite volcano or a cinder cone volcano?
I believe that the volcanoes on Hawaii or shield volcanoes. For sure, I know Mauna Loa is a shield volcano.
What volcanoes form from the fallen cinders and tephra of an eruption?
A combination volcano develops from repeated lava eruptions and the accompanying tephra deposits Tephra is the debris from the eruption..
When was the first eruption of fujiyama volcano?
The volcano eruption was when the layers of the earth crack..and it form into a volcanic cone,thats where the lava comes out...and the volcano is build by the lava,is because that every time the lava turns cold it drys..and becomes hardend
What type of land form is Mt Etna?
Mount Etna is a Composite Volcano.
Can a composite volcano form in a pond?
Not really. While there is nothing that would prevent a composite volcano from developing under an area where a pond happens to be, there is no pond big enough to contain a composite volcano. As soon as the volcano starts forming, the first significant eruption would probably fill in or blast away the pond.
Mayon volcano is what type of volcano?
Mount Mayon, the Phillipines, is a stratovolcano, or a composite volcano. The lava erupted has a high silica content and high viscosity, and is mainly andesitic. Mount Mayon is categorised as active, and is viewed as a 'perfect volcano' due to the symmetry of sides.
What kind of eruption form composite cone?
Graham middel school sucks dick
Did Mount Vesuvius form in a caldera?
No, Mount Vesuvius is a composite volcano and its latest eruption was in 1944. Some sources say that in that eruption, Mt. Vesuvius collapsed in a caldera, but it didn't. FYI: A caldera is a volcano that had an extremely explosive eruption that emptied the magma chamber, causing the volcano to collapse in on itself. An example of a caldera is Crater Lake in Oregon.
How do composite cone volcanoes form?
because
Is there composite volcano looks short and flat?
Generally a flat-looking volcano would be a shield volcano, but it is possible for a composite volcano to become shorter. During a particularly large eruption a composite volcano can collapse to form a bowl-shaped depression called a caldera. Examples include Mount Tambora and Mount Mazama. There are also complex volcanoes, which show characteristics of multiple volcano types and often have multiple vents. The island of Tenerife is such an example, as it is a shield that has several composite cones and cinder cones on it.
Ash cinder and bombs form what type of volcano?
cinder cone volcano
