What should you know about volcano?

it is explosive! and shoots out lava and magma.


What is the shape of a volcano formed by fast-flowing lava?

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!!


What type of lava does an explosive eruption produce?

An explosive eruption typically produces thick and sticky lava known as silica-rich or felsic lava. This type of lava has high viscosity and trapped gas bubbles, causing it to erupt violently. As the lava is very viscous, it can block and build pressure in the volcano, resulting in explosive eruptions.


What is a quiet volcano?

Quiet volcanoes explode with much less suddenness, because lava does not cool and harden. The lava that creates a quiet volcano is still runny and flowing, and do not plug the craters and trap huge quantities of explosive gas. However, pockets of hot gas form that squirt fountains of lava into the air. Because lava flows away before hardening, broad sheets of lava and wide, gently sloping domes are formed around the volcano. When the lava has dried, it forms a rock known as basalt.


What kind of eruption quiet explosive or both at different times would you expect to come from a cinder cone volcano composite volcano and a shield volcano?

A cinder cone volcano typically has quiet eruptions, characterized by the ejection of small fragments of lava and ash. Composite volcanoes can have both quiet and explosive eruptions, due to the buildup of pressure from the highly viscous magma. Shield volcanoes generally have non-explosive eruptions, with flowing lava that travels long distances.

Is a non-explosive volcanic eruption more likely to produce lava or pyroclastic material?

Lava because pyroclastic material explodes from a volcano, Lava just runs down the surface of the volcano nonexplosive or explosive.

Can molasses or Whipped cream or Orange juice or glue simulate a fast flowing lava volcano?

In my point of view I think orange juice will simulate a fast flowing lava volcano

Is a stratovolcano a shield volcano?

No. A stratovolcano is a volcano with steep slopes consiting of layers of lava flows, ash, and pumice and is prone to explosive eruptions. A shield volcano is a volcano with broad slopes composed of layers of low viscosity lava flows and is generally not prone to explosive eruptions.


What substances are responsible for the stickiness of cemetation?

lava flowing down a volcano


What kind of eruption form composite cone volcano?

Composite volcanoes are highly variable in what they erupt. Most often, eruptions will release clouds of ash, pumice, and rock fragments. In some cases they fountain or extrude lava.


What does the fissure in a volcano do?

A shield volcano is a type of volcano usually built almost entirely of fluid lava flows. They are named for their large size and low profile, resembling a warrior's shield. This is caused by the highly fluid lava they erupt, which travels farther than lava erupted from more explosive volcanoes. This results in the steady accumulation of broad sheets of lava, building up the shield volcano's distinctive form. Shield volcanoes contain low viscosity magmamaking it have flowing mafic lava.


What is an acid lava volcano?

Acid Lava Dome is a type of volcano that forms when viscous acid lava solidifies quickly to form a volcano with steep convex sides.
