It was the Eurasian Plate and the North american plates that caused the volcano to erupt. They rubbed against each other and caused shaking
The plate boundary that caused Vesuvius to erupt is the convergence of the African and Eurasian plates. It stretches the length of the Italian Peninsula.
It was the Eurasian Plate and the North American Plate
The tectonic plates slide together, causing an earthquake to erupt across the southern part of the state.
Because it is a volcano formed by converging plates
Mt. Erubus has tectonic plates made up of parts of the lithosphere. These plates grind together or pull apart and this causes volcanoes to erupt.
The Pacific and North American Plates were involved in the Novarupta eruption.

It was the Eurasian Plate and the North American Plate
it was simply just tectonic plates that pushed the lava through.
What caused mt.adams to erupt?
there were actually three plates. The Juan de Fuca plate, the Pacific Plate and the North American Plate.
There are plates that are always shifting around in the ground. They move 1cm every day. When the plates collide,they make a big BOOM which cause the things in the volcano to heat up. Then the heat pushes everything to the opening in the volcano which causes it to erupt and shoot out.
well there are tectonic plates at the end of the sea and then one of those tectonic plates go up and a tsunami will erupt?
Well it would cause an earthquake and sometimes a volcano to erupt
Tsumanis do not erupt; volcanoes erupt. Tsunamis are waves caused by friction between two plates underneath the ocean. When two plates try to move past each other, most of the time there is no issue. Sometimes, though, the plates will get stuck until there is finally enough pressure to push past the obstruction. This built-up pressure is released into the surrounding ocean and leads to tsunamis. Japan sits at the border between four different plates and as a result, experiences many tsunamis.
The natives of Pompeii and Herculaneum thought that the Roman gods were showing their anger at the people and that their world was ending. The scientific explanation is that two plates directly under Vesuvius collided, creating an earthquake inside the volcano, which caused it to erupt.
