Tectonic plates are oceanic plates. But when tectonic plates collide and a convergent boundary earthquakes occur.
usually when the tectonic plates collide there is either an earth quake, tsunami or both, however this doess not happen very often.
Stress and faults are both caused by tectonic plates.
Faults are created when tectonic plates are stretching or compressing. There are two types of faults which are normal and reverse faults.

Faults themselves don't move; they're cracks in between tectonic plates which do the moving. The plates move due to slow-moving convection currents underneath. It's basically slowly circulating magma that slowly pushes the plates along. As plates slide and collide with each other, they change the shape and position of the faults in between.
Tectonic plates.
Stress and faults are both caused by tectonic plates.
Faults are created when tectonic plates are stretching or compressing. There are two types of faults which are normal and reverse faults.
When tectonic plated collide they create an earthquake. It happens by them colliding and shaking each other forming a big movement.
