Compare the three types of volcanic mountains in terms of shapes type of eruption and the materials that make up the volcano?
Three Main Types of Volcanoes* The three main types of volcanoes differ in shape, size, and make-up; the differences partly result from the different types of eruptions.
Volcano TypeVolcano ShapeVolcano SizeVolcano MaterialsEruption TypeUtah Example Cinder Cone
Steep conical hill with straight sides
Small
less than 300m high
cinders
Explosive
Diamond Cinder Cone,
Washington County
Shield Volcano
Very gentle slopes; convex upward (shaped like a warrior's shield)
Large
over 10s of kms across
fluid lava flows (basalt)
Quiet
Cedar Hill,
Box Elder County
Stratovolcano
Gentle lower slopes, but steep upper slopes; concave upward
Large
1-10 km in diameter
numerous layers of lava and pyroclastics
Explosive
Mount Belknap,
Tushar Mountains, Paiute County
What else can I help you with?
What the 1951 eruption of Mount Lamington register on the Richter Scale?
The 1951 eruption of Mount Lamington in Papua New Guinea was estimated to have a Volcanic Explosivity Index (VEI) of 4. The Richter Scale is not typically used to measure the size of volcanic eruptions; instead, the VEI is commonly used to classify and compare the explosiveness of volcanic eruptions.
How do you compare the eruptions of the Hawaiian volcanoes to the 1980 eruption of Mt Saint Helens?
FALSE
Compare and contrast volcanoes and a mountains?
Volcanoes are openings in the Earth's crust that allow molten rock and gases to escape, often leading to eruptions. Mountains, on the other hand, are landforms that rise prominently above their surroundings due to various geological processes like tectonic uplift or volcanic activity. While volcanoes can be part of mountain ranges, not all mountains have volcanic origins.
When compare to the process of oxidation with the process of photosynthesis what do you notice?
The waste products of one are needed materials for the other.
What properties of materials can be compared by a 'scratch test'?
A scratch test can compare the hardness, wear resistance, and surface finish of materials. By observing the depth and width of the scratch made on different materials, one can infer their relative hardness and how well they resist abrasion.
What is the highest recorded earthquake magnitude on the Richter scale, and how does it compare to a VEI 9 volcanic eruption in terms of destructive power?
The highest recorded earthquake magnitude on the Richter scale is 9.5. In terms of destructive power, a VEI 9 volcanic eruption is considered more powerful and catastrophic compared to a 9.5 magnitude earthquake.
How does the volcanic eruption of st helens compare to montserrat?
Because They Were Diffrent In lots of ways one give out ash one give out lava. Laceyyy & Georgiia<Thats what the valcanos are called

The easiest way to distinguish between volcanic ash and volcanic dust particles is to compare their?
The easiest way to distinguish between volcanic ash and volcanic dust particles is to compare their diameter. Seismographs can be useful in predicting volcanic eruptions because they measure earthquake activity.
How can you compare mountains and oceans?
Oceans are deep, mountains are tall.
Compare the formation of Hawaii with that of paricutin?
Hawaii formed as a result of a hot spot volcanic activity over a stationary tectonic plate, leading to a chain of islands. Paricutin formed as a result of a single eruption in a continental crust, creating a cinder cone volcano. Both are examples of volcanic formations, but the mechanisms and processes of their formation differ.
How do you compare the eruptions of the Hawaiian volcanoes to the 1980 eruption of Mt Saint Helens?
FALSE
How do extrusive and intrusive rocks compare?
both form from heat-volcanic activity

Are the Andes mountains and the Rocky Mountains the same mountain chain?
The Andes Mountains, even though they are very tall, do not compare with the Himalayas,
The standard used to compare the test materials in science is?
