If the ocean was allowed to pour into a volcano would the cold sea water put it out?
No. The underground forces that drive a volcanic eruption will continue to operate even if cold water is present. Many volcanoes first emerged deep under the ocean, where the water is always frigid. If a large amount of water pours into a volcano during a major eruption the most likely result would be a massive steam explosion.
What else can I help you with?
What effect would a volcano erupting under water in the ocean have on the landscape?
It would take a long time but eventually either a new island will form or if the underwater volcano is close enough to land a current island we become larger
In what state of matter would you expect water to be as it erupts from a volcano?
It would most likely be in the form of water vapor seeing that it is 100s to 1000s of degrees hot.
What signs indicate that a volcano might erupt?
Before a volcano erupts, there may be high frequency and low frequency earthquakes, changes in shape or size of the volcano, and tremors.
What is the most likely result of polar ice caps melting?
Fish would be harmed by changes to the ocean water
What geologic features would you expect to find on the ocean floor near the volcano and earthquake areas on your map?
Near volcano and earthquake areas on the ocean floor, you would expect to find features like mid-ocean ridges, deep-sea trenches, seamounts, and hydrothermal vents. These features are associated with tectonic plate boundaries and geological activity, such as volcanic eruptions and seismic events, that occur in these areas.
What effect would a volcano erupting under water in the ocean have on the landscape?
It would take a long time but eventually either a new island will form or if the underwater volcano is close enough to land a current island we become larger
If an island turned into a volcano what species would be on the island?
any type of ocean animals
What would happen if an underwater volcano kept erupting?
Eventually it would break through the surface of the ocean and then form an island.
In what state of matter would you expect water to be as it erupts from a volcano?
It would most likely be in the form of water vapor seeing that it is 100s to 1000s of degrees hot.
Where would cold water flow in the ocean?
cold water flows in the ocean to the coast of California
Is flood water mainly fresh water?
It depends on where the flooding is. If it is near the ocean and the flooding is from the ocean, then it would be salt water, If the flooding is from rainwater, It would be freshwater.
How would water density compare to ocean water?
The water would have the same density anywhere it is.
A body of water that is surrounded or partially surrounded by the ocean?
A body of water such as you describe would be the ocean itself.
What signs indicate that a volcano might erupt?
Before a volcano erupts, there may be high frequency and low frequency earthquakes, changes in shape or size of the volcano, and tremors.
What is the closest body of water to Mexico City?
Two of them would be the Ajusco mountain, just south of Mexico City, or the Popocatepetl volcano, some 70 kilometers (43 miles) southeast of the city.
What would happen if you put a fresh water fish in the ocean?
Explain what would happen if a piece of seaweed from the ocean was placed in a fresh water aquarium?
Were would you find salt water?
the ocean
