What else can I help you with?
What is the density independent of lava flow?
the lava flow is a density independent that flow good from the chemicals lava it have to flow and it is independent
Is there a difference between lava and lava flow?
Yes, there is a difference between lava and lava flow. Lava is the molten rock beneath the Earth's surface, while lava flow refers to the movement of lava as it travels down a volcano or hillside. Lava flow is the result of the eruption of molten rock, which can vary in speed and direction.
What affects the speed of lava flows?
The temperature and the silica content will both affect the viscosity of lave which will in turn affect the flow rate (whereby the lower the temperature and the higher the silica content, the higher the viscosity and the lower the flow rate).
How does lava cool on top of lava?
Lava on Earth's surface is exposed to air, which is of course much cooler than the lava. The air then carries heat away from the surface of the lava flow rather quickly. Since rock, molten or otherwise, is a poor conductor of heat the interior of the lava flow cools much more slowly and does not supply heat to the cooling outer layer. As a result the lava forms a thing solid crust. Until a thick insulating crust has built up the surface will remain quite hot, just not hot enough to be molten.
Does lava cover the land evenly?
No, lava does not cover the land evenly. The flow of lava can be influenced by topography, viscosity of the lava, and external factors such as wind direction, which can all affect how the lava spreads across the land. This can result in uneven distribution of lava on the landscape.
How does the shape of a volcano affect the flow of lava?
SGV
How does gravity affect the lava flow?
As a physycist, I can assure you this has no effect.
How does temperature affect how well magma will flow?
It affects the rate of flow of the lava. Hotter means faster flow
Why won't the lava in my lava lamp fall to the bottom?
The lava in a lava lamp rises and falls due to changes in temperature. If the lamp is not warm enough, the lava may not heat up sufficiently to flow downward. Ensure the lamp is placed in a warm area and allow some time for the lava to heat up and flow naturally.
Does temperature affect the speed of lava?
Yes, because the hotter lava gets, the easier it can flow. The reduced density of hot lava, plus reduced hardening of the leading edge, means that it will travel much more rapidly than cooler, thicker lava.
How does the temperature of lava affect how far the lava will flow?
The temperature of lava affects its viscosity, or how easily it flows. Hotter lava has lower viscosity and can flow more easily, often traveling further than cooler, more viscous lava. Cooler lava tends to be more sluggish and may not flow as far before solidifying.
What 3 factors affect the formation of lava?
Composition, heat, and pressure.
Can intense heat form a cave?
no +_++ With one exception, the Lava Tube! This results from still-molten lava flowing out from beneath the solidified crust on a mahjor lava flow.
What is the density independent of lava flow?
the lava flow is a density independent that flow good from the chemicals lava it have to flow and it is independent

What affects the speed of lava flows?
The temperature and the silica content will both affect the viscosity of lave which will in turn affect the flow rate (whereby the lower the temperature and the higher the silica content, the higher the viscosity and the lower the flow rate).
Would lava flow on Earth in a vacuum?
Yes. In fact the lava would cool more slowly as it would not lose heat though convection.
