The speed of a lava flow depends on the earth and how it's moving and also the shape of the land. If the lava has contact with the sun it will slow down as the lava is already boiling hot and the sun will make it slower from making it drier. The earth's shape will affect it, if there is a steep hill running along side the volcano then the speed will increase.
pahoehoe is the more smooth lava flows. a'a is the very jagged, sharp lava.
Lava flows are usually slow moving, giving people time to escape.
Lava movement refers to the flow of molten rock on the Earth's surface, typically during a volcanic eruption. The movement of lava can vary in speed, from slow-moving oozing flows to fast-moving streams of molten rock. Lava flow direction is influenced by topography, gravity, and the viscosity of the lava.
Lava flow from shield volcanoes can range from a few meters to several kilometers per hour, depending on the viscosity of the lava. Generally, shield volcano lava flows are known to be relatively slow-moving compared to other types of volcanoes.
Well it depends on how bad the lava flow is. If the lava is flowing slow then the shape of the volcano won't change much, But if it flows with force then bits of the volcano will fall off and change the shape of the volcano. Hope this answer helps!!

Lava is slow only, 10 mph at fastest but hot ash can go 200 mph.

Lava flows are generally slow moving, giving people time to evacuate. As a result, they do not kill as often as other volcanic hazards such as pyroclastic flows.
it flows slow also called papoepoe

Well lava is melted rock, so it's not as loose as say, water. There is fast lava though too. How slow it is depends on it's pH.
Pahoehoe lava is a cool, slow-moving type of lava with a smooth, ropey texture. It forms when low-viscosity basaltic lava flows and cools, creating distinctive ridges and folds on the surface. Pahoehoe lava flows can sometimes be observed in Hawaii, where they are a common feature of volcanic activity.
it depends on how steep the slope is.
Im not sure but I think its not fast but not slow so in the middle
