Does pahoehoe make obsidian?
No. Pahoehoe forms basalt.
Lava that flows slowly to form a glassy surface with rounded wrinkles is called?
The lava is pahoehoe Lava.
When lava hardens quickly to form ropy formation it is called what?
When lava hardens quickly to form a ropy formation, it is called pahoehoe lava.
Are basaltic lavas a pahoehoe lava?
Basaltic lavas can be either pahoehoe or a'a lava types. Pahoehoe lavas have smooth, rope-like textures, while a'a lavas are rough and jagged. The type of lava formed depends on various factors such as temperature, composition, and viscosity.
What is the smooth lava flow called?

The lava is pahoehoe Lava.
Fast moving hot lava that has low viscosity is called?
Fast moving hot lava with low viscosity is called "pahoehoe." It has a smooth, ropy texture due to its high temperature and low resistance to flow.
What is the pahoehoe temperature?
Pahoehoe lavas typically have a temperature of 1100 to 1200 °C.
What is the difference between pahoehoe and AA lava?
The difference between Pahoehoe lava and AA lava is that pahoehoe lava is smooth and AA lava is jagged.
Is pahoehoe lava only found in Hawaii?
No. Many shield volcanoes produces pahoehoe.

What is Pahoehoe used for?
Pahoehoe is a type of lava flow that has a smooth, ropy texture. It is formed when low-viscosity basaltic lava flows and cools quickly, creating a distinctive wavy surface. Pahoehoe flows can be seen in volcanic regions and are a popular attraction for tourists.
What is the smooth lava flow called?
The smooth and shiny lava is called pahoehoe.
