What is a continental slide?

A continental slide is the new crust on the earth surface. It happens when two plates below the earth surfaces meets and the boundary became deep trenches.


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 is collide divide slide?

"Collide divide slide" is a phrase used to describe the three main types of plate boundaries: convergent (collide), divergent (divide), and transform (slide). Convergent boundaries are where plates come together, divergent boundaries are where plates move apart, and transform boundaries are where plates slide past each other.


What are the three types of earth's plates?

The three types of Earth's plates are convergent plates, where two plates move towards each other; divergent plates, where two plates move away from each other; and transform plates, where two plates slide past each other horizontally.


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.


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.
