Are there earthquakes volcanoes hurricanes and tsunamis at he nazca plate boundary?

The plate boundary between the Nazca Plate and the South American Plate does produce volcanoes, earthquakes, and tsunamis. Hurricanes have nothing to do with plate boundaries.


How does plate tectonics play a role in the formation and eruption and volcanoes?

Volcanoes and volcanic activity occurs at plate boundaries. Especially when one plate over rides another plate - convergent boundary. As a result of pressure, friction, and plate material melting in the mantle, earthquakes and volcanoes are common near convergent boundaries.


Earthquakes and occur at plate boundaries?

Volcanoes


What plates do earthquakes and volcanoes usually occur at?

The edge of the Pacific plate is known as the "Ring of Fire" because it has very high concentrations of earthquakes and volcanoes. However, most plate boundaries are capable of producing earthquakes and volcanoes at least occasionally.


How earthquakes volcanoes and mountain's formation are related to plate tectonics?

Earthquakes, volcanoes and mountains are formed via plate tectonics. When the large continental plates collide, they either cause temporary earthquakes, or more permanent features such as volcanoes and mountains.


Where are most of the earthquakes and volcanoes?

around plate boundries.


How are earthquakes and volcanoes are alike?

Volcanoes and Earthquakes are alike because both of them are on fault lines and sometimes there are volcanoes after earthquakes and earthquakes after volcanoes and they both sometimes even have tsunami's after them.


Where do you find most of the zones of earthquakes and volcanoes on Earth's surface?

usually you find most of the zones of earthquakes and volcanoes at a plate boundary.


Why are there no volcanoes or earthquakes in Scotland?

Scotland is situated on a stable tectonic plate, far from any plate boundaries where volcanic or seismic activity typically occurs. The lack of volcanic activity means there are no active volcanoes in Scotland. While Scotland does experience occasional minor earthquakes, they are usually of low magnitude due to the area's stable geological conditions.


Where are the worlds volcanoes located why is this?

They are located around the "ring of fire" and or the Pacific plate, this is because it it the largest and lightest piece of tech tonic plate and all the other plates grind against it making multiple volcanoes and earthquakes around it, hens forth "the ring of fire".
