When the edges of two plates slide alongside each other, it can result in a tectonic boundary known as a transform fault. This type of boundary can create earthquakes due to the friction and pressure between the plates as they move past each other.
When two Earth plates move alongside each other, they create a transform boundary. This movement can cause earthquakes as the plates grind against each other. Over time, this movement can also cause the land near the boundary to fracture and shift.

earthquakes
no they jam into each other and create earthquakes
No. When tectonic plates move away from each other they can cause an ocean to spread.
they collide and create earthquake
If on land, they create earthquakes, if in water, tsunamis.
Tectonic plates interact with each other at their boundaries, where they can move apart, collide, or slide past each other. These interactions can create earthquakes, volcanic activity, and the formation of mountains.
When two tectonic plates slide past each other, it is called transform boundary. This movement can create earthquakes along the boundary where the plates are in contact.
A destructive plate boundary.
The place were two plates move past each other is called a transform boundary. This motion does not produce any mountains, but it can create large earthquakes.
