Where is a cinder cones volcanoes located?

Cinder cones are the mountainous structure built up by some volcanoes. Most of the material that makes up the cone is ash and cinders expelled from the top of the cone.


Is lava dome volcanoes the most errupted?

No. Cinder cones are the most common variety.


What are the kinds of cone volcanoes?

The two main types of cone volcanoes are stratovolcanoes and cinder cone volcanoes. Stratovolcanoes are large, steep-sided volcanoes composed of layers of lava flows, ash, and volcanic rocks. Cinder cone volcanoes are smaller, symmetrical volcanoes formed from pyroclastic material ejected during eruptions.


Where are you most likely to find cinder cone volcano?

Cinder cones are usually found on the sides of shield volcanoes, calderas, and stratovolcanoes. Many cinder cones can be found in Hawaii on the volcano of Mauna Kea. The most active cinder cone is found in Nicaragua. It is named Cerro Negro, and according to geologists and scientist has erupted around 20 times since 1850.


Cinder cones are the most potentially dangerous volcanoes because they generate the most explosive eruptions?

While cinder cones do have the potential for explosive eruptions, they are generally considered less dangerous than stratovolcanoes due to their smaller size and lower frequency of eruptions. Stratovolcanoes can produce more violent and destructive eruptions.


Are cinder cone volcanoes located in the middle of a tectonic plate or at the boundary?

Most volcanoes of any type, including cinder cones, are found at plate boundaries, but some are associated with hot spots.


Do cinder cones erupt felsic or mafic lava?

Composite volcanoes can erupt both mafic and felsic material, but intermediate material is the most common.


Where are cinder volcanoes?

Most Cinder Volacnoes are found in North America.


What kind of volcanoes have cinder cones?

It is good to be interested in this sort of question, and the answers to it are available to you if you search the web or look in Wikipedia (it will help you to get answers more quickly if you learn how to do this) - for instance the answer to this question is to be found on the link I am placing below.


What type of volcanos are there?

There are five types of volcanoes:Composite- One of the main three types of volcanoes, composite volcanoes are made up of layer upon layer of hardend lava and rock fragments. These types of volcanoes have dangerous and unexpected eruptions, which are explosive due to the clogging of the thick, silica rich magma in the magma pipe. The lava then hardens to form another layer with the rocks and pebbles settling on top.Shield- Shield volcanoes tend to be very wide around and not very steep. This is due to the runny silica low lava that the volcano emits. They often form under water and when erupted form islands like those in Hawaii.Cinder cones- Cinder cones are usually lower to the ground than most other volcanoes. The main factor that gets the blame is that Cinder cones usually erupt only pebbles, gases, and sometimes heavier rocks that settle on the volcanoe in a cone and create an unstable lauer of rock and ash that easily slides down to the bottom of the volcano. Cinder cones are fairly steep.Splatter cones- Volcanoes that hold enough explosive gas to shoot clotts of lava- or "splatters" into the air. They then fall and settle together on the volcanoes top to form steep accumulations.Complex volcanoes- A volcano consisting of two or more vents.


What type of volcano is most common on Venus?

Shield volcanoes are the most common type of volcano on Venus. These volcanoes are broad with gentle slopes, often reaching large sizes with low profiles due to the runny nature of the lavas on Venus.


What are the three types of volcanoes and what are the difference?

cinder strato and shield shield is the least dangerous and the lava slowly flowsa down cinder erupts tephra not lava like a shield and is cone shaped strato is the most dangerous it erupts both tephra and lava
