What is a shield volcano ?
the wider flatter kind of volcano
What 2 types of volcanoes are there?
There are three. From smallest to largest, they are: Cinder Cones, Composite Volcanoes (also called Strata Volcanoes), and then Shield Volcanoes.
Steep-sloped volcanos with alternating layers of cinders and basalt flows are called what?
These volcanoes are called stratovolcanoes or composite volcanoes. They are characterized by their steep slopes and alternating layers of cinders, ash, and lava flows, typically made of basaltic and andesitic compositions.
What are three types of volcanoes?
Three types of volcanoes are shield volcanoes, stratovolcanoes (composite volcanoes), and cinder cone volcanoes. Shield volcanoes have gentle slopes and are formed by low-viscosity lava, while stratovolcanoes are characterized by alternating layers of lava and ash. Cinder cone volcanoes are small, steep-sided volcanoes formed by pyroclastic material ejected during eruptions.
What are three facts about composite volcanoes?
Multiple eruptions form composite volcanoes. Andesite magma is the most common type of magma that erupts from composite volcanoes. Composite volcanoes can grow so high that their slopes become unstable and collapse.
What is the steeply sloped side of a dune called?
a slip face
What part of a sand dune faces away from the wind?
The leeward or downwind side is known as the slipface.slipface
When wind creates a sand dune the sheltered side of the dune does what?
is more steeply sloped than the windward side
What is a shield volcano ?
the wider flatter kind of volcano
Why is waste piping steeply sloped to prevent solids from creating a barrier?
Depends what you consider "steeply" sloped as one can have pitch "slope" as little as 1/16 per ft if the diameter is large enough (8") BUT of course then your severely restricting how many fixture units (7.48 gallons) you can connect to this piping

Are composite volcanoes the biggest volcanoes?
yes
What do composite volcanoes form?
composite volcanos
When wind creates a sand dune the sheltered side of the dune .?
is more steeply sloped than the windward side answerd by westley robinson
Do composite volcanoes erupt violently?
Yes. Composite volcanoes often produce violent eruptions.
What makes composite volcanoes to erupt?
Ash and Gas make composite volcanoes erupt i believe
