How would you describe lava with a high viscosity?
The highest viscosity lava is rhyolite. Rhyolitic lava tends to form dome-shaped volcanoes and tends to cause explosive eruptions.
What is the effect of temperature on the viscosity of gases?
For liquids; Viscosity tends to fall as temperature increases. For gas; Viscosity increases as temperature increases.
The internal resistance of a fluid which tends to prevent it from flowing is called?
Viscosity
What type of lava tends to lead to non-explosive eruptions?
Basic lava is low in viscosity.
Lava that is low in silica tends to?
Lava that is low in silica tends to have lighter rocks come out of it.
What is the oil viscosity for a Freightliner M2 truck?
15W-40 diesel oil tends to be used as a 'default'. If it's made after 2007, you'll need API-CJ4 rated oil. Really all comes down to the engine and environment you're operating in.
What volcano is more dangerous land or water?
Land based volcanoes are more dangerous to people. More important is the type of lava, based on viscosity. Highly viscous lavas tend to cause explosive eruptions, like Mt. Saint Helens, while low viscosity lava tends to flow after eruption, without the ash and pyroclastic effects associated with highly viscous lavas.
Does viscosity tend to increase or decrease as a liquid is heated?
Viscosity tends to decrease as a liquid is heated. The particles making up the liquid move faster so they slide around each other more quickly, becoming more fluid.
A factor that tends to cause species to change is a?
A factor that tends to cause species to change can be one of two things. It can be either climate change or an invasive species.
Why viscosity increases to decrease temperature?
Viscosity tends to increase as temperature drops in most liquids because the kinetic energy of the molecules reduces. This allows the intermolecular forces to get molecules attracted giving the fluid more resistance to flow. Interesting though, in gases at low pressure viscosity increases with T1/2, where T is the thermodynamic temperature.
Does felsic lava create violent or quiet eruptions?
Felsic lava, due to its high viscosity and generally high gas content tends to produce violent eruptions.
Why would a cars rpm's increase while diving?
Since the load on the engine reduces in a dive. it tends to overspeed the engine.
