What is formed when two plates are sliding in each other?
An earthquake is caused when two techtonic plates collide causing friction which then causes them to slide away from eachother causing a huge jolt in the earth called and Earthquake.
When plates slide past each other what is it called?
An earthquake
When plates slide past each other at a transform boundary geological processes is most likely to occur?
An earthquake will most likely occur because the techtonic plates below the earth's surface are grinding past one another causing severe shaking.

THEORY OF PLATE TECHTONIC?
When the Continental Drift Theory applies; when two plates either collide, smash, or slide to move plate techtonics.
When two plates slide one under the other is called?
It's called the Transform, that's the second stage of the plates.

What happens when tectonic plates slide past each other?
What occurs when the plates slide each other is a boundary forming. this boundary is called a transform boundary.

What is it called when the plates are moving toward each other?
This is called a convergent boundary. A divergent boundary is when plate move away from each other, and a transform boundary is when plates slide past each other.
