What else can I help you with?
What happens when two plates pull away from each other in opposite directions?
When any fault occurs or tectonic plates pull away from each other under the ground. An earthquake happens.
What occurs when two tectonics plates move away from each other?
mid-ocean ridges and volcanoes
What are the different movements of crust?
seafloor spreading occurs when oceans widen and continents separate.convergent plate movements occurs when two plates collide toward each other.divergent plate movement is the moving away of plates from each other.transform plate movement occurs when two plates are sliding horizontally with each other.:)
What are the different movements of the earth's crust?

What happens to lithospheric plates when an earthquake occurs?
When an earthquake occurs, lithospheric plates either slide past each other, collide, or move apart along their boundaries. The stress accumulated along the plate boundaries is released suddenly, causing the plates to deform and generate seismic waves that we feel as an earthquake.
Can two plates moving away from each other form a volcano?
Yes, but no with each other. They can meet other plates.
When did the earthquakes occurs?
When tintanic plates obstruct with each other
When to oceanic plates move away from each other what is it called?
When oceanic plates move away from each other, the process is called seafloor spreading. This occurs at divergent plate boundaries, where magma rises from the mantle to create new oceanic crust as the plates separate. This process often leads to the formation of mid-ocean ridges.
What is it called when two plates move away from each other?
When two plates move away from each other it makes a falt line or a riffed. -bekahcboo
What is the divergent boundary convergent boundary and strike slip boundary?
divergent= move away from each other convergent= CONVERGE together strike-slip= brushing past each other A divergent boundary occurs at the point where two plates are moving away from each, creating more crust at the point of separation. A convergent boundary is where two plates are both moving into each other, neither subducting under the other, but pushing up the crust. A strike slip boundary occurs when plates are colliding at an angle. Tension builds up and is released in the form of an earthquake.
What are three ways tectonic plates interact with each other?
When plates slide past each other, move toward each other, and move away from each other.
What is one thing that occurs when plates move to each other?
Earthquake
