What is the name of the boundary where two plates are moving toward one another?

Convergent boundary.


Are most volcanoes on land caused by the Earth's plates moving away from each other or moving toward each other?

all volcanoes are caused by the earths plates moving toward each other and that is called convergent boundaries.


What are collision?

They are the contact points between plates that are moving toward each other.


Are most volcanoes on land caused by the earths plates moving away from each other or moving toward each other?

Most volcanoes on land are caused by the Earth's plates moving toward each other, a process known as convergent plate boundary. When two plates converge, the denser oceanic plate subducts beneath the less dense continental plate, leading to the formation of volcanoes along the subduction zone.


How does an earthquake happen in order?

first the plates move towards or along each otherone of them (mostly the oceanic plate)the pressure of the plate moving toward each other is released and an earthquake happens


What happens when to plate move toward each other?

When tectonic plates move toward each other, it results in a convergent boundary. As the plates collide, one plate may be forced beneath the other in a process called subduction, while another may crumple and form mountain ranges. Earthquakes, volcanic activity, and the creation of ocean trenches or mountain ranges can occur at these convergent boundaries.


When 2 tectonic plates move towards one another the boundary between them is called?

Tectonic plates are the plates that move underground and cause volcanoes - I hope this answers your question. Z


What is the slow movement of earth's plates that carries continents toward or away from one another?

Continental drift.


What happens if the source of a sound is toward you at a high rate of speed?

If the source of a sound is moving towards you, then the pitch of the soundyou hear is higher than the pitch of sound that the source is actually emitting.The rate of speed doesn't matter.BTW ... this also happens if you are moving toward the source.


Do convergent plates move away from each other?

they move against one another


Where are the 3 major kinds of boundaries?

Convergent boundaries (plates moving toward each other, also called destructive boundaries), divergent boundaries (plates moving away from each other (sometimes called constructive boundaries), fault lines (sideways movement).


What is it called when plates are moving toward each other?

This is called a convergent boundary. A divergent boundary is when plate move away from each other, and a transform boundary is when plates slide past each other.
