Density plays a key role in convergent boundaries. When two plates collide at a convergent plate boundary, it is the denser plate that will subduct.

What affect will water on the outside of the flask have in determining the density?
The density is lower.
Do continental plates move faster than oceanic plates?
No, oceanic plates move faster than continental plates. This is due to the density of the oceanic plates (basalt is denser). For example, the fastest moving plates are the Pacific plate, Cocos plate, and Nazca plate. All oceanic.

Describe three ways in which earths plates interact?
The earth's plates interact: 1. that's how you make mountian's 2. thet's how you get ocean trenches 3. that's what causes earthquakes
Countries located near or on the tectonic plates?
All countries are located on tectonic plates - in fact the world is entirely covered with tectonic plates! Where different plates interact with each other the results can affect the countries locally. Where plates push together you can get volcanoes and earthquakes (an example is Japan.) Where plates pull apart there is usually lots of ocean but you can get some calm volcanism, (an example being Iceland.) Where plates rub past one another there can be earthquakes. An example would be the west coast of the USA and the San Andreas Fault.)
