A volcano that has been inactive for a long time may pose a greater risk. Volcanoes that erupt frequently tend to produce small eruptions. Volcanoes that are inactive for long periods are more likely to produce large eruptions with far-reaching impacts.
inactive volcanoes are the most dangerous volcanoes. think of it like a fart. you are holding the gas in at school or work and when you get home or at a bathroom, you let the gas out and it lasts long or it smells. exactly like a volcano.
No. Oklahoma is in an area that has been largely geologically inactive for hundreds of billions of years.
what are the examples of inactive and active volcanoes?
With some exceptions, volcanoes are generally not dangerous to people. Your chance of being killed by a volcano is 1 in 80000 over your lifetime, which is far less than your chance of being killed in say a motor vehicle accident (1 in 67). There are also two classifications for inactive volcano's. Volcanoes which have not erupted for a significant amount of time are known as dormant volcanoes. Volcanoes which have not erupted in human history are known as extinct volcanoes. Extinct volcanoes are never expected to erupt again, and are therefore not dangerous unless they have been misclassified. So no, I do not think that all volcanoes whether active or inactive are dangerous. The only dangerous volcanoes are dormant volcanoes that explode suddenly with little or no warning.
a volcano that hasn't been active for a hundred years because of viscosity which is the resistance to flow and one that has been inactive for a hundred years would have a low viscosity and would stick more for a better but more dangerous explosion.
There are 103 inactive volcanoes in the Philippines.
For now the current list of inactive volcanoes are 355
There are no volcanoes in New York, neither active nor inactive.
Inactive volcanoes are unlikely to errupt,however there is no guarantee that they won't errupt . Also called dormant volcanoes.
Yes. Australia is the only continent with inactive volcanoes.
Usually a volcano that has not erupted in many years poses a greater potential threat. Volcanoes are erupt infrequently are more likely to produce large eruptions.
