When two plates collide, or come together, the plates will push upward, forming a mountain.
If one plate is continental crust and the other is oceanic crust, the less dense crust (this being the oceanic) will actually move under the more dense crust, in a process called subduction, to form a deep-ocean trench.
What else can I help you with?
What happens when 2 land plates collide?
it makes a mountain
What happens when plates collide into each other?
It creates mountians
What happens when plates collide but no subduction occurs?
they hug each other
What happens when two plates move each other?
they collide and create earthquake
What happens when two of the Earth's plates collide and one is forced underneath the other?
a earth quake happens
What happens duruing an earthquake?
The plates in the earth collide and one goes under the other
What happens if tectonic plates collide with sedimentary and igneous rocks?
When tectonic plates collide, the impact can cause sedimentary and igneous rocks to undergo various geological processes. Sedimentary rocks may be folded, faulted, or metamorphosed due to the immense pressure and heat generated during the collision. Igneous rocks, depending on their composition and location, can be uplifted, deformed, or even partially melted. This interaction plays a crucial role in the rock cycle and the formation of mountain ranges and other geological features.
What is the result when plates Collide?
When plates collide, they can either crumple and fold, creating mountain ranges, or one plate can slide beneath the other, forming trenches and volcanic arcs. The type of collision depends on the type of plates involved - oceanic, continental, or a combination.
When tectonic plates collide?
When tectonic plated collide they create an earthquake. It happens by them colliding and shaking each other forming a big movement.
What happens when two plates moved towards each other?
they collide and create earthquake
What happens when tectonic plates collide and friction melts part of both plates and the melted rock rises?
LOLOLOLOLOLOL hehehe and lol
What does category of earthquake mean?
the moving or depositioning of rocks underneath the surface of the earth when th earths plates collide
