What kind of volcano is Yellowstone a composite cinder cone or a shield?
No. it is a caldera and s supervolcano. A shield volcano is characterized by basaltic lava and effusive eruptions with little to no explosive character. Yellowstone produces rhyolytic lava and extremely explosive eruptions.
What features may occur when volcano lava cools at the surface?
When volcano lava cools at the surface, it may form different features such as lava rock formations like basalt columns, lava tubes, and aa or pahoehoe lava flows. These features depend on the cooling rate and composition of the lava.
What is the difference between lava flow lava fountains and lava tubes?
A lava flow is basically a stream of lava on the surface. A lava tube is an underground cave through which lava flows downhill. A lava fountain is lava shooting into the air out of a volcano in much the same manner as a water fountain.

However, the volcano's eruptions are explosive and produce large amounts of ash. This would be carried by upper level winds and would fall on Pennsylvania.
