What else can I help you with?
Are geysers volcanoes?
No, geysers send up fountain like jets of water and steam. Volcanoes erupt lava.
What does regular interval mean?
Intervals are a space or a period of time between things. Regular intervals would be a period of time between things that is always constant; the time stays the same(:
What part of speech is erupt?
Erupt is a verb.
Are geysers formed when groundwater is heated by nearby magma?
Geysers are, in fact, formed when groundwater is heated by nearby magma. They can also be formed by volcanic eruptions and earthquakes occasionally as well.
What is the name of the volcano which can erupt any time in the future?
A volcano is easy it's an active volcano but there are thousands that could erupt tomorrow
What is boiling water and stream gushing into the air at regular intervals?
That is a geyser. Geysers are hot springs that intermittently erupt hot water and steam due to underground conditions that cause pressure build-up and boiling water to be expelled into the air. They are a natural phenomenon found in geothermal areas.
Why is old faithful is name that?
Old Faithful got its name because it erupts fairly quickly and regularly- once every 35 min-2hrs.
Are geysers volcanoes?
No, geysers send up fountain like jets of water and steam. Volcanoes erupt lava.
How many types of geysers are there?
1000
These are hot springs that erupt periodically with hot water and streams?
Geysers! :)
Is the water that comes out of a geyser hot or cold?
Most geysers erupt hot water, however there are a few cold water geysers in the world. The reason why they 'erupt' is due to pressure, it has nothing to do with water temperature.
How ar geysers formed?
Geyers are fountains of water and steam. They form when that steam builds up pressure underground and erupts at regular intervals. They are formed when steam produced underground breaks through the surface. Here is a site with more information than you probably want to know about geysers: http://www.uweb.ucsb.edu/~glennon/geysers/
How often do geysers erupt?
The eruption frequency of geysers varies depending on the geyser. Some geysers erupt on a fairly predictable schedule, such as Yellowstone's Old Faithful which erupts approximately every 90 minutes. Other geysers may erupt less frequently, with some potentially going years between eruptions.
How long does it take the geysers to burst?
The time it takes for geysers to burst can vary widely depending on the geyser. Some geysers erupt regularly on a predictable schedule, while others may be more irregular. Geysers can burst anywhere from minutes to hours after the start of an eruption cycle.
What is the source of heat for Yellowstone's geysers?
The heat for Yellowstone's geysers comes from magma beneath the Earth's surface. This magma heats up the water in underground reservoirs, creating pockets of steam that eventually erupt through geysers.
What is a column of water that shoots up with great force at various intervals?
A geyser is a column of water that shoots up with great force at various intervals. This happens when water is heated underground and builds up pressure, eventually forcing it to erupt through the surface in a powerful burst. Geysers are often found in regions with volcanic activity, such as Yellowstone National Park in the United States.
Why do geysers erupt only sometimses?
Geysers erupt intermittently because of the periodic buildup of steam pressure within underground chambers. When this pressure eventually overcomes the resistance of the overlying water, an eruption occurs. The recharge rate of water and the heat supply from the underlying magma also influence the frequency of eruptions.
