What does the movement of Earth's crust along plat boundaries produce?
The movement along plate boundaries would cause an earth quake, a tsanami, or either the building of a mountain.
Does movement along plate boundaries results in earthquake?
yes
Why do major landslides occur near plate boundaries?
There are two reasons. First, the movement along plate boundaries and the accompanying folding and faulting can create hills and mountains. If the slopes become too steep they are unstable and prone to landslides. Second, movement along plate boundaries also generates earthquakes, which can trigger landslides.
Is the movement of plate uniform or uneven along its boundary?
UnevenEach plate has several boundaries and exerts pressure in all directions, and the movement is rarely close to uniform.
What type of movement do transform fault boundaries moves?
Transform fault boundaries move horizontally past each other in opposite directions. This movement occurs along tectonic plate boundaries, where the plates slide past one another, causing earthquakes.
What type of plate boundarries found in andesitic valcano?
Plate boundaries are not found in volcanoes.Volcanoes occur along plate boundaries usually along convergent boundaries
Why are earthquakes so common along plate boundaries?
because the plate boundaries will always go along with it
Is the movement of a plate uniform or uneven along its boundary?
UnevenEach plate has several boundaries and exerts pressure in all directions, and the movement is rarely close to uniform.
What cracks in the earth's crust along which movement takes place?
They're called 'fault lines' or 'plate boundaries'.
Why are there more earthquakes occurring near plate boundaries than near the center of a plate?
The movement of the plates relative to one another much greater stress along faults than is typically found away from plate boundaries.
What type of plate movement creates folding mountains?
Mountains form along convergent boundaries when 2 plates collide. These are also called colliding boundaries.
How do convection currents cause earthquakes?
Convection currents within Earth's mantle can create movement of tectonic plates, leading to stress build-up along plate boundaries. When this stress is released, it causes earthquakes. The movement of the convection currents keeps the tectonic plates in motion, contributing to ongoing seismic activity.
