An explosive eruption can demolish a mountainside within minutes to hours, depending on factors such as the size of the eruption, type of volcanic material ejected, and the stability of the mountain. The force and speed of the explosion can rapidly disintegrate and erode the mountain's structure, causing large-scale devastation.
What else can I help you with?
What kind of eruption has an pyroclastic flow?
An explosive volcanic eruption. Pyroclastic flow is a mixture of fast flowing hot gases that travel down and away from the eruption.
What type of eruption is associated with the release of pyroclastic materials?
The type of eruption associated with the release of pyroclastic materials is called a Plinian eruption. This explosive eruption can produce a significant amount of ash, volcanic gases, and pyroclastic flows, which are fast-moving currents of hot gas and volcanic matter. Plinian eruptions are characterized by their high eruption columns and can have widespread effects on the environment and climate. Examples include the eruptions of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD and Mount St. Helens in 1980.
What is a vulcanian eruption?
A Vulcanian eruption is a type of volcanic eruption characterized by short explosive bursts of gas-charged magma. These eruptions often result in ash columns, pyroclastic flows, and volcanic bombs being ejected from the volcano. Vulcanian eruptions are typically smaller and less violent than Plinian eruptions.
What factors determine the force of a volcano eruption?
Factors that determine the force of an eruption are magma viscosity and gas content.
What type of eruption produces a gentle flow of lava?
A type of eruption that produces a gentle flow of lava is called an effusive eruption. In these eruptions, lava flows steadily and slowly, typically without explosive activity. The lava tends to have low viscosity, allowing it to flow easily across the surface of the volcano.
What kind of eruption has an pyroclastic flow?
An explosive volcanic eruption. Pyroclastic flow is a mixture of fast flowing hot gases that travel down and away from the eruption.
What do you call the fast-travelling stream of hot gas and fragmental material that is produced during an explosive volcanic eruption?
Pyroclastic flow

Is there a pahoehoe in a volcanic explosive eruption?
Not usually. Pahoehoe refers specifically to a lava flows. These can occur in mildly explosive eruptions, but usually explosive eruptions to not produce lava flows. Instreat they produce clouds of ash with some lapilli and pumice. Pryoclastic flows often result. These are fast-moving avalanches of superheated ash, gas and pumice. These form a kind of volcanic rock called tuff.
What factors determine the force of a volcano eruption?
Factors that determine the force of an eruption are magma viscosity and gas content.

A type of eruption that produces a gentle flow of lava is called an effusive eruption. In these eruptions, lava flows steadily and slowly, typically without explosive activity. The lava tends to have low viscosity, allowing it to flow easily across the surface of the volcano.
What are differences between an eruption column and pyroclastic flow?
An eruption column is a vertical column of ash and volcanic gases rising above a volcano during an explosive eruption, while a pyroclastic flow is a fast-moving avalanche of hot rock fragments and volcanic gases that flows down the sides of a volcano at high speed. Eruption columns are visible in the sky, while pyroclastic flows move rapidly along the ground, causing devastation in their path.
Will an explosive eruption have more gas and be more dense than an explosive flow or would it be less gaseous and less viscous?
if the volume is bigger than the other gass and the gass is flamable methan, yes it will be more dence than the other when explodes or is ignited, the reason is that the gas will have less time to spread.
Is Fast twitch muscles are for explosive type movements and are easily fatigued?
yes
What can i do if there is a volcano eruption in your community?
call 911 then run/drive away as fast as you can
An extremely fast airplane can cause an explosive sound called?
it is known as sonic boom
