What else can I help you with?
Where is a earthquakes?
Earthquakes usually occur around faultlines or plate boundaries because that's where plates split apart a long time ago. When two plates collide they form earthquakes.
Where two of the earth plates split apart?
At the boundry of two tectonic plates, you get volcanoes, earthquake epicentres and ( if its under the ocean) tsunamis.
Why does a volcano form at the boundary of two plates moving apart?
A volcano will form at the boundary of two plates moving apart. This is because the two plates moving apart create a crack allowing molten lava to flow up from the mantle.
What is it called when two lithospheric plates move apart?
Continental Plates
What mid Atlantic country is being split apart by plate moving?
Iceland is the mid-Atlantic country being split apart by the movement of the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates. The country's unique geological setting along the Mid-Atlantic Ridge results in active volcanic and geothermal activity, as well as gradual separation of the two tectonic plates.
How does the surface of the earth change when two continental plates collide?
The Earths surface changes shape when plates collide when the earths surface overlaps or when there are Earthquakes.
What is it called when two plates are pulling apart?
When two plates are pulling apart, it is known as divergent boundary or divergent plate boundary. This type of boundary results in the formation of new crust as magma rises to the surface and solidifies.
What is the divergent?
when two plates split and go away from eachother
When two continental plates move apart?
earthquake!!!!!!
This type of boundary forms when two plates pull apart.?
Divergent plate boundaries form once two plates begin to pull apart from each other.
How are divergent plates different from convergent plates?
Divergent Boundaries happen when two plates (oceanic or contental) begin to diverge, or move apart. Convergent Boundaries occur when two plates (again, oceanic or contential) begin to converge or move apart
What country is split by two tectonic plates?
Iceland is split by two tectonic plates, the North American Plate and the Eurasian Plate. This geological feature is visible at Thingvellir National Park, where a rift valley showcases the boundary between the plates.
