Do plates slide past each other at convergent boundaries?
No. Plates come together at convergent boundaries. In other words they converge. Plates slide past each other at transform boundaries.
What happens when two continental plates slide past each other?
Transform faults are caused by plates sliding past each other.
Which type of plates slide past each other in opposite directions?
A Transform boundary consists of plates that slide past each other in opposite directions. The earth is made of lots of different sliding plates.
What happens when tectonic plates slide past each other?
What occurs when the plates slide each other is a boundary forming. this boundary is called a transform boundary.
Two plates grind past each other at a?
I'm learning about this at school too! When two plates slide right past each other in either direction is called Shearing.
What occurs when plates slide past each other?
When plates slide past each other, it is known as a transform boundary. This movement causes earthquakes along the fault line between the two plates. Friction between the plates can build up over time, eventually releasing in a sudden movement that shakes the Earth's surface.
Do plates slide past each other at convergent boundaries?
No. Plates come together at convergent boundaries. In other words they converge. Plates slide past each other at transform boundaries.
What are the techtonic plates that slide past each other called?
Where 2 plates slide past each other in a horizontal motion that boundary is called a Transform Boundary, or a fault.
What type of boundry is a transform boundry?
A transform boundry is when two plates slide past each other

Transform faults are caused by plates sliding past each other.
What do tectonic plates move?
Tectonic Plates move by trying to push past each other and by trying to slide past each other.
When plates slide past each other what is it called?
