It is an explosive volcano. Mount Rainier is a stratovolcano, characterized by layers of ash from explosive eruptions and cooled lava flows from effusive eruptions. The high viscosity and gas content of its magma are the reason for its explosive nature.
Mount St. Helens is generally regarded as an explosive volcano, but like most stratovolcanoes, it can produce both explosive and non-explosive eruptions.
Mount Shasta is considered a potentially explosive stratovolcano due to its composition of andesite and dacite lava which can lead to explosive eruptions. However, its most recent eruptions have been relatively non-explosive with mainly effusive lava flows.
No, Mauna Loa is not an explosive volcano. It tends to be non-explosive.
Yes. Stratovolcanoes usually alternate between explosive and non-explosive eruptions.
Mount Pelee is a stratovolcano, which is a composite volcano. It is known for its explosive eruptions due to the composition of its magma. Shield volcanoes, on the other hand, are characterized by their broad, gently sloping profile and quiet, non-explosive eruptions.
Mount St. Helens is generally regarded as an explosive volcano, but like most stratovolcanoes, it can produce both explosive and non-explosive eruptions.

Mount Shasta is considered a potentially explosive stratovolcano due to its composition of andesite and dacite lava which can lead to explosive eruptions. However, its most recent eruptions have been relatively non-explosive with mainly effusive lava flows.
Mount Fuji is considered a stratovolcano, which means it has the potential for both explosive and non-explosive eruptions. Historically, it has exhibited explosive behavior, particularly during its last major eruption in 1707. However, eruptions can vary in intensity, and some eruptions may be non-explosive, characterized by lava flows rather than explosive ash clouds. Overall, while it has the capability for explosive eruptions, it can also produce less violent activity.
When it explodes!
yes.
No, Mauna Loa is not an explosive volcano. It tends to be non-explosive.
Yes. Stratovolcanoes usually alternate between explosive and non-explosive eruptions.
No. A supervolcano is a volcano that is capable of producing extremely large explosive eruptions. Kilauea is a shield volcano. Most of its eruptions are non-explosive or only mildly explosive.
Mount Pelee is a stratovolcano, which is a composite volcano. It is known for its explosive eruptions due to the composition of its magma. Shield volcanoes, on the other hand, are characterized by their broad, gently sloping profile and quiet, non-explosive eruptions.

It is explosive (it is a stratovolcano). In a worst-case scenario, more than 400,000 people would have to be evacuated from the proximity of the volcano: up to 30 km / 19 mi from the cone.
