Does a volcano has both quiet and explosive eruptions?
A volcanic eruption is more explosive if the magma or lava has a high viscosity, which means it is thick. A volcano like MT Kilauea in Hawaii has thinner magma which flows more freely from the volcano. If it's thicker more gas is created and it can also cause blockages which make for a larger explosion.
Is mount fuji's eruptions loud or quiet?
it is loud
What two factors control whether an eruption will be explosive or quiet?
Water vapor and silica
Does Mount St Helens lava flow violently or quietly?
Lava can't flow violently. Highly explosive eruptions such as the 1980 eruption of Mount St. Helens do not produce lava flows: they produce clouds of ash, gas, and pumice. Mount St. Helens has produced "quiet" lava flows at times.
What is the adjective of we you love your quiet woods?
quiet
Is it true that a composite volcano have both quiet and explosive options?
Yes. The ash and cinder layers are from explosive eruptions while the lava flows are from non-explosive eruptions.
What kind of eruption quiet explosive or both at different times would you expect to come from a cinder cone volcano composite volcano and a shield volcano?
A cinder cone volcano typically has quiet eruptions, characterized by the ejection of small fragments of lava and ash. Composite volcanoes can have both quiet and explosive eruptions, due to the buildup of pressure from the highly viscous magma. Shield volcanoes generally have non-explosive eruptions, with flowing lava that travels long distances.
A volcano built from both quiet and explosive eruptions?
Surprisingly, yes. There's a volcano in New Zealand, Mt. Egmond that was made from both, a composite volcano.
Does a composite volcano erupt quietly or explosively?
A composite volcano is the most explosive type of volcano there is. Mt. St. Helens and Mt.Vesuvious in Pompeii are both examples of composite volcanoes, and look at the damage they did. a composite volcano usually has pyroclastic flows to accompany the traditional lava and ash.
What are the two kinds of volcano eruptions?
quiet and explosive
Is the Yellowstone volcano quiet explosive or both?
Yes. The Yellowstone volcano has produced several VEI-8 eruptions, the most explosive level of eruption possible.
What are the two main kinds of volcano eruptions?
quiet and explosive
Is mount pelee a cinder cone composite or shield?
Mount Pelee is a stratovolcano, which is a composite volcano. It is known for its explosive eruptions due to the composition of its magma. Shield volcanoes, on the other hand, are characterized by their broad, gently sloping profile and quiet, non-explosive eruptions.
Is a composite volcano quiet or loud?
OH MY GOSH! IT'S A VOLCANO!!!! WHAT DO YOU THINK??? INCASE THAT WASNT ENOUGH, LET ME SPELL IT OUT FOR YOU........................LOUD!well some volcanoes are loud but some are quiet
What kind of volcano is mt st Helen's?
Mount St. Helens is a stratovolcano, also known as a composite volcano. Stratovolcanoes are characterized by their steep, symmetrical cones built up by layers of hardened lava, ash, and rocks. They are known for explosive eruptions due to the high viscosity of their lava.
Does a composite volcano have a mixture of both heavy and light rocks?
A composite volcano is called composite because it has alternating layers of lava and ash, formed by quiet lava flow after explosive eruptions. But yeah, it's definitely made up of both heavy and light rocks !!
Does Mount Fuji have a quiet or explosive eruption?
Mount Fuji typically has quiet eruptions, characterized by the slow flow of lava and minimal explosive activity. However, it has also experienced explosive eruptions in the past, with the last major eruption occurring in 1707.
