Answer:Volcanoes erupt when molten rock called magma rises to the surface. Magma is formed when the earth's mantle melts. ... Runny magma erupts through openings or vents in the earth's crust before flowing onto its surface as lava. If magma is thick, gas bubbles cannot easily escape and pressure builds up as the magma rises.

What is the volume of a rectangular prism that has a height of 3 inches and a base of 14 square inches?
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer: 42 in^{3}

Explanation:

The volume of a rectangular prism is given by the multiplication of its three dimensions: length, width and height.

V=(length)(width)(height) (1)

This also can be seen as the multiplication of the area of one of its faces (length times width, for example) and its height. In fact, this is the case here.

We are given the area of the base of the rectangular prism:

A=(length)(width)=14 in^{2} (2)

And the value of its height:

h=3 in (3)

Hence, the volume of this prism is:

V=(A)(h) (4)

V=(14 in^{2})(3 in) (5)

Then:

V=42 in^{3} This is the volume of the rectangular prism

What is the difference between Techtonic Plates and Hot spot
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

Tectonic plates are the pieces of crust that move around Earth's surface, while a hot spot is a point below a tectonic plate that lies just above an area in the mantle that has higher activity.

Explanation:

Tectonic plates are large pieces of crust that float on top of the mantle and move around Earth's surface. They are driven by the convection currents that occur in the mantle, which create big pressure from below, push them in a certain direction, creating different types of interactions between them and contributing to the formation of the vast majority of Earth's landforms and ocean basins.

A hot spot is a place in the mantle that has higher activity than the rest of the mantle. Because of this increased activity, the hot spot is able to penetrate through the crust of the plates, far away from the plate boundaries. The result of it is a hot spot volcano, be it on land or in the ocean. Because the hot spot is static and the plates move, as the plate moves and drags the volcano, it stops with activity, while another is formed just above the hot spot.
