If this feature becomes plugged with hardened magma what could happen to the volcano?
If a volcano becomes plugged with hardened magma, it can lead to a buildup of pressure within the magma chamber. This pressure may eventually exceed the strength of the rock surrounding the plug, potentially resulting in explosive eruptions as the trapped gases are released. Additionally, the blockage could cause volcanic gases to accumulate, leading to increased volcanic activity or hazardous gas emissions. Overall, the plugging of a volcano could create a dangerous situation with unpredictable outcomes.
What else can I help you with?
Where is the potential and kinetic energy in a volcano?
Potential energy is found when the lava(magma) is hardened. Kinetic energy is found when the volcano is erupting.
Is the build up of hardened lava at openings in the Earth's crust from where magma is able to erupt?
volcano
Why is a volcano an extrusive igneous feature rather than an intrusive feature?
A volcano is composed of material that cooled and solidified at the surface, which makes it extrusive.
What type of volcano erodes very quick?
A cinder cone erupts quickly and makes a hill made of small pieces of hardened lava.
What is wide gently sloping mountain made of hardened layers of low silica lava?
Shield volcano
Does hardened lava form a vent?
No, it forms a volcano.
What is the rock material called that has filled in the vent of a volcano and hardened?
Basalt
What landforms forms from hardened magma in the pipe of an extinct volcano?
nothing

What created the hawaiian island?
There was a small volcano and when it erupted, it hardened and created islands.

Shield volcano
Where is the potential and kinetic energy in a volcano?
Potential energy is found when the lava(magma) is hardened. Kinetic energy is found when the volcano is erupting.

After millions of years what landforms form from hardened magma in the pipe of an extinct volcano?
Volcanic neck
Why is a volcano an extrusive igneous feature rather than an intrusive feature?
A volcano is composed of material that cooled and solidified at the surface, which makes it extrusive.
