What are advantages and disadvantages of volcanoes?
Volcanoes can create more land but can kill plants and animals while flowing lava.
What is the difference between acid lava cones and ash and cinder cones?
Acid lava cones are smaller and much steeper than ash/cinder cones. Acid lava cones are almost convex in shape and are formed due to thick lava that does not flow freely and cools before reaching very far. This gives in the conical 'dumpy' shape. While ash and cinder cones are more symmetrical and concave in shape. They are formed due to volcanic lava or volcanic bombs (of solidified lava) that was shot up in the air, cool and hardened and broke up into tiny pieces (of ash or cinders) before coming back down to the earth's surface.
What lava would be very painful to walk across with bare feet?
All
This lava would be very painful to walk across with bare feet?
Aa
Are volcanoes constructive?
Yes. What happens is when the lava cools down, it turns into rock.
What is the tunnel where the lava travels to the top called?
lava tube
What is the term for lava flow that travels downhill at over 100mph?
Pyroclastic flow
What is the tube that lava travels through?
It travels through a "Pipe" and explodes out the "Vent", or possibly the "Side Vent", and another world for the hole at the top is the Crater.
How lava travels?
It travels as a liquid, in response to gravity and obstructions, until friction or solidification overcome the force of gravity.
What is the tunnel that lava travels to reach the top of the volcano called?
The "tunnel" that magma travels through is called a vent.
What is the fastest lava can travel?
IT is travelling at its fastest when it gushes out of a vent to form a lava fountain.
What are the pipelike structures within the volcano which magma travels called?
they are called lava tubes
How long can magma flow until cooling?
Magma flows for a long period of time but named lava when out of the ground. It depends how fast the lava is travels, but you can usually run from it:)
What is lava that travels 100 mph down a hill called?
The closest match to this is a pyroclastic flow, but it isn't exactly lava: it is a cloud of hot ash, rock, and gas.
How far on average does lava travel?
There's a range for lava flow that stretches from a few inches to a number of miles. It depends mostly on a lava's viscosity. Highly vuc\\iscous lava volcanoes, such as Mt. St. Helens, tend to erupt violently, but lava flows are slow and quick to solidify. Underwater eruptions may have lava that solidifies on the outside almost instantly. Extremely low viscosity lava flows, like those in Hawaii, may run for days and cover miles before solidifying.
How thick is the lava from a cinder volcano?
The thickness of lava is generally dependent on the eruption rate of the volcano. The flow rate of lava is measured by the lava's viscosity. Highly viscous lava does not flow well or travel great distances. Low viscosity lava can flow for great distances.
What are the four types of lava that form at hot spots and their characteristics?
Aa is lava that forms a thick ,brittle crust . Pahoehoe is a lava that forms a thin crust. Pillow lava forms when lava erupts underwater. Blocky lava is kool, stiff lava that does not travel far from thr eruption site.
