What is the effect of a convergant boundary?
When convergent plates collide one is pushed beneath the other plate and sinks into the Earth's mantle. This process is known as subduction. Subduction creates trenches in the ocean, which is why trenches and associated with convergent plates.
How are mountains chains formed?
When two edges of tectonic plates collide (convergent boundary) they can cause a crumpling effect and an upthrust to form mountains. The Himalayas, for instance, were formed when the Indian Plate crashed into the Asian Plate. Convergent boundary also applies to the situation where one plate moves under the other (subduction) this kind of plate boundary can also form mountain chains. An example of this is the Andes mountains.
What is the effect of plate movement at a divergent boundary?
The effect of subduction at the boundary of two plates is the movement of one tectonic plate under another tectonic plate. This creates a subduction zone, which often occurs in convergent boundaries.
What is the effect on velocity and pressure if a liquid flows in a convergent pipe?
I think velocity is directly proportionate to its applying pressure.
What type of plate boundary caused Mount St Helens?
The cause of Mt. St. Helens' volcanism is due to the subduction melting of the Pacific Plate as it subducts under the North American Plate, located along a convergent plate boundary or fault. No, Mount Saint Helens is not on a hot spot, nor is it on a fault. Mount Saint Helens is part island arc volcanic chain (the Casade Mountaind) due to the subduction of the Pacific Plate under the North American Craton. NOTE: The Farallon Plate is no longer here; it ceased to exist with the end of the Laramide Orogeny some 30 million years ago. The remnants of the Farallon Plate are the Juan de Fuca Plate of British Columbia and northwestern Washington State, and the Cocos Plate of southwestern Mexico. Neither of these microplates has any effect on Mount Saint Helens, which is in southwestern Washington. I found this answer on answers.yahoo.com

What effect can energy production have on the idea of cultural landscape?
growth
What is a continental-continental convergent boundary?
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.
Malnutrition is a possible side effect of what kind of surgery?
Malnutrition is, however, a possible side effect of bariatric surgery.
What is the possible effect of a spinal cord injury?
Possible paralysis
What Is The Negative Effect Of Crystallization?
The Negative Effect of Crystallization is laser damage in high resistance mirrors. A grain boundary of HfO2 microcrystal was observed in the damaged area.
