Yes because when they hit it causes the ground to shake.
The plates slide across from each other. By that I mean away from each other and they can make earthquakes and mountains!
Yes, earthquakes are primarily caused by the movement of tectonic plates. When two plates slide past each other, get stuck, and then suddenly release, it generates seismic waves that we feel as earthquakes.
At a transform boundary, two tectonic plates slide past each other horizontally in opposite directions. This movement can result in earthquakes as the plates grind against each other. Transform boundaries do not typically involve the creation or destruction of crust, but rather the lateral movement of existing crust.
Earthquakes.
The plates slide against each other, causeing earthquakes.
Earthquakes occur along fault lines and the edges of tectonic plates. These are areas where the earth's plates move against each other. When they slide past each other, earthquakes occur.

sometimes they slide around and that movement creates earthquakes
Tectonic plates shifting around while bumping into another tectonic plate. When the plates slide pass each other, it creates a transform boundary which makes earthquakes.
if you are talking about earthquakes then its all about tectonic plates. The force of two plates get to much so one of the plates slide under the other forming an earthquake.
