because the plates are pushing on each other and then release all the of it was released
Most earthquakes occur near tectonic plates because as the plates shift, they move the ground causing an earthquake to occur. Most earthquakes happen there but you must keep in mind that the tectonic plates only move 4-6 centimeters every years.
Tectonic plates.
Most earthquakes occur at the boundaries of the tectonic plates. Tectonic plates are always in motion, and when two of them collide with one another it causes earthquakes.
Where the tectonic plates occur.
Earthquakes occur most often along the boundaries of tectonic plates.
Most earthquakes occur at or near the boundaries between tectonic plates.
Scientists observed that volcanoes and earthquakes occur at the edge of tectonic plates.
Yes.
Tectonic plates and fault lines created by the movement of tectonic plates.
Tectonic plates are plates that float on the earths mantle. There are 8 major tectonic plates on the earth and at the joints of these many earthquakes seem to occur.
Earthquakes are caused when pressure builds up as two tectonic plates move together. As the pressure is released, an earthquake is produced.
Tectonic plates are oceanic plates. But when tectonic plates collide and a convergent boundary earthquakes occur.
