Why do shield volcanoes have steep sides but are still very tall?
shield volcanoes have gentle sides and aren't very tall
What is another name for a gentle slope?
Glacis - a slope, especially one that is not very long or steep
Explain why shield volcanoes do not have steep sides but are still very tall?
Shield volcanoes have gentle slopes because they are formed by successive flows of low-viscosity lava that can travel far before solidifying. These lava flows spread out horizontally, resulting in a broad, gently sloping shape. Despite their gradual incline, shield volcanoes can still be very tall due to the accumulation of numerous thin lava flows over time.
What is the consistency of lava in the composite volcanoes?
Composite volcanoes are found on destructive plate margins , where the oceanic crust sinks beneath the continental crust. Composite volcanoes have the following characteristics: Acidic lava, which is very viscous (sticky). Steep sides as the lava doesn't flow very far before it solidifies
What are gentle sided and steep sided volcanoes?
gently sloping volcanoes are called shield volcanoes and they are formed from many eruptions of lava that is relatively low in silica, so it spreads out in many thin layers and creates the gently sloping sides of a shield volcano.

The three types of volcanoes?
Shield volcanoes are the largest of the three types of volcanoes, built from basaltic lava flows and shaped like a gentle dome. Cinder cone volcanoes have very steep slopes and reach heights of 300 meters or less, and are made from ejected lava. Composite Cone Volcanoes are large symmetrical cones made from viscous lavas that are extruded, and they are the most violent volcanoes of the three.
What does a strato - volcano look like?
find out your self instead of coming here
What are the similarities and differences between the types of volcanoes?
Shield volcanoes have fluid basaltic flows that are lower in silicates, making the lava very fluid without a tendency to form pyroclastics. Composite Cone volcanoes contain the highest percentage of silica content making the magma thicker with the greatest tendency to form pyroclastics and are the most dangerous volcanoes.
When tephra falls to the ground it forms a steep sided very hard packed cinder cone volcanoe?
Tephra consists of volcanic ash, pumice, and other fragmented materials ejected during explosive eruptions. When this material falls to the ground, it accumulates around the vent, forming a steep-sided cinder cone volcano. The compacted nature of tephra contributes to its hardness, allowing the cinder cone to maintain its structure over time. These volcanoes typically have a bowl-shaped summit crater and can vary in size, but they are often characterized by their conical shape and steep slopes.

Can burning clutch overheat the car?
no, but if you are burning your clutch i recommend having someone teach you how to drive a standard, you should never burn your clutch unless you are going up a very steep incline where you can't let it out quickly
