How are mountains formed at convergent plate boundrys?
When plates converge, they crash together and push dirt up. With giant plates, they push up mountains. Take some dirt. Take two rulers. Put the dirt between the rulers. Now, push the rulers together. What happens to the dirt? The only way it can go is straight up. That also happens to the dirt between plates.
What word has the definition tectonic plates push together?
When tectonic plates push together, they converge, forming a convergent boundary.
What forms when plate push together?
when plates push together, it forms new land.
What is it called when plates push together?

What happens on plate collision boundaries?
the two equal plates push together and then they eventually pust up, to make mountains.(they have to be the same types of plates for this to happen!!) e.g. the himalayers
What forms when continental plates push together?
Volcanoes or sometimes earthquake!
These form when two continental plates push together?
convergent boundary
Does sea floor spreading happen when 2 plates push together?

How do you know the sierra Nevada mountains and the rocky mountains are at the edge of plates?
Mountans are created by tetinoc plates that push together. Imagine two big meatal plates pushing together with a tremendious amount of force, the edgers would be all crumpled and messed up. that is what happens, so all mountain ranged are on the edges of the plates.Tada!
How can the movement of tectonic plates create a mountain?
The plates push and pull and grind against each other they push together the force goes up and they form large mountains!
What happens when plates on earth crust push together or scrape past each other?
They lodge together pressure builds up and overcomes the friction the plates jolt past each other and make earthquakes this also creates ridges in the land eg san andreas fault
Which landform is likely to form where two oceanic plates push together?
A deep ocean trench is likely to form where two oceanic plates push together in a convergent boundary. This is because one of the plates subducts beneath the other, creating a deep trench.
