What else can I help you with?
What do colliding plates cause?
Colliding plates cause mountain ranges to grow.
Why do you have earthquakes in California?
because shifting of plates colliding together
What would happen if plates kept on colliding?
earthquakes and volcanoes
What are underground plates called?
Underground plates are called tectonic plates. These plates are large pieces of the Earth's lithosphere that move and interact with each other, causing phenomena such as earthquakes and volcanic eruptions.
What can be caused by slipping sliding and colliding of the tectonic plates?
Slipping, sliding, and colliding of tectonic plates can cause earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and the formation of mountain ranges. These movements can also lead to the creation of new landforms, such as rift valleys and trenches, and can impact the distribution of resources and habitats on Earth.
One feature associated with colliding plates?
Earthquakes are a feature associated with colliding plates. When tectonic plates collide, the intense pressure and friction can cause the plates to stick and build up stress. When this stress is released suddenly, it results in seismic energy being released in the form of an earthquake.
Do earthquakes cause sliding plates?
If you mean tetonic plates, then no, sliding tetonic plates cause earthquakes.
Why do some earthquakes cause tsunamies?
earthquakes can cause tsunamis because the earth's plates, (search up earth's plates on Google...) slowly move colliding against each other causing violent trembles known as earthquakes. because the ocean is covering the earth's plates up we cannot see that it is moving plates that are causing massive waves called "tsunamis." - by Sheenji- sheenjiberry@gmail.com
Where do Most earthquakes happen at the edge of?
Most earthquakes happen at the edge of tectonic plates, where the plates are colliding or sliding past each other. These areas are known as plate boundaries, and the stress and friction from the movement of the plates can lead to earthquakes.
What is cause by continents colliding?
Earthquakes, follwed by tidal waves.
What cause plates?
earthquakes
When plates collide they cause what?
they cause earthquakes
