Answer: c. Phreatic eruption caused by the heating and expansion of groundwater.

Explanation:

The Kilauea is an active volcano in Hawaii that erupted very violently due to the buildup of steam in 1924. Lava from the volcano usually drains back to the main magma body beneath the sea via a sort of passage. When this happens, water is able to enter the passage and instantly become steam when it interacts with the lava and escape up the volcano.

This time however, when the lava drained, the walls of the passage collapsed on the passage thereby blocking it. The water that had now come into contact with the lava and had become steam were trapped. The steam kept building up and eventually forced the rocks outward very violently resulting in the explosion.

What was the bank run 1930 and what are some of the reasons it happened? What were the effects of the bank crisis in the U.S on

Troyanec [42]

Answer:

The bank run occurred because the stock market crashed and investors wanted immediate access to their liquid cash. This was not possible because many banks had invested heavily in the stock market and were not required to keep large sums of money on hand. Nor were the deposits of investors insured, so much of the liquid cash was gone. This situation led to great instability in domestic and international markets

Explanation: The Great Depression witnessed the collapse of the capitalist system as we know it.
