How does the movement of earths plates cause earthquakes?

The plates rub together causing the rocks to move and it causes the ground to shake forming an earthquake. The more the plates move, the bigger the earthquake number.


Why do earthquakes and volcanoes occur?

because of the plates in earth shift fast and the force causes the earth to shake.


What do geologists think causes earths plates to move?

The movement of the Earth's plates is known as plate tectonics. Geologists think the plates move due to a build up of extreme heat in the Earth's crust.


Do volcanoes erupt when earths plates move?

Well, when earths plates move away from each other that's when it happens but move well then NO!


Why is the earths crust always moving?

Simple- Convection in the mantle causes mantle to slowly move, and it pushes against the crust. As it does this, the tectonic plates move.

Why do the Earths plates move?

The Earth's plates move due to forces associated with the mantle convection process. Heat from the Earth's core causes the mantle to circulate, creating movements that push and pull on the tectonic plates above. This leads to the slow but constant motion of the Earth's lithosphere.
