2.7 meters per second is the same speed as 100 meters in 37 seconds.
A person ... Usain Bolt ... has run 100 meters in 9.58 seconds.
If, in the person's state of hyper-adrenaline-fueled terror, he can run only
1/4 as fast as Usain Bolt, then he can outrun that lava. Just barely.

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.
Yes. What happens is when the lava cools down, it turns into rock.

Lava is molten rock that spews from an erupting volcano. It is extremely hot, reaching temperatures as high as 1,300 to 2,000 degrees Fahrenheit (704 to 1093 degrees Celsius). In a volcanic eruption, lava is in liquid form. When it solidifies, it forms igneous rock. However, it can take quite a long time to cool, traveling great distances before becomes solid
