What happens when two plates slide?
there is faulting
Why do tectonic plates slide underneath each other?
They move all the time due to convection streams. When they bump to each other a lot of tension occours. And when finally on or the other plate gives in the slide goes over or under the other plate. Did that answer to your guestion?
What happens when the two plates slide past each other deep inside the Earth's crust?
An earthquake.
What happens at a divergant boundry?
The plates slide across from each other. By that I mean away from each other and they can make earthquakes and mountains!
What happens when two plates slide pass one another?
The friction generates energy that can manifest itself in an earthquake, which can be more severe if the plates snag on each other.
What occurs on faults?
The tectonic plates underneath the earths crust are moving, and these plates crash into, and slide against each other. These places where the plates meet are called fault lines. Since the plates are constantly moving, there is a lot of pressure between the plates, and eventually, it needs to be released in the form of an earthquake.
What happens when tectonic plates slide past each other?
When tectonic plates slide past each other, they create friction along their boundaries which may cause earthquakes. This movement does not result in the creation or destruction of land, but rather changes the position of the plates relative to each other. Over time, this process can lead to the formation of transform boundaries.
When two tectonic plates slide past each other what happens to the crust of these plates?
When two tectonic plates slide past each other, they can create friction along the plate boundary. This friction can cause the plates to stick momentarily, leading to stress being built up. When the stress is released, it can result in an earthquake as the plates suddenly move past each other.
What happens when two continental plates slide past each other?
When two continental plates slide past each other, they create transform boundaries. Friction between the plates may cause earthquakes along the boundary. Over time, the movement can result in the build-up of stress that is released suddenly in the form of an earthquake.
When two plates slide past each other what happens to the crust of the plates?
When the plates slide past each other, it releases a shock wave, either a p-wave or an s-wave, and it spreads out in all directions. Sometimes it causes earthquakes.
