it does but its only when the plates rub against each other
transform boundary
it is on a convergent plate boundary also known as a subduction zone
Transform boundaries do not produce volcanic activity.
Any type of plate boundary can cause an earthquake. That said, areas along convergent, divergent, and transform tectonic plate boundaries are the most likely places for earthquakes to occur.
'..... is measured on the Richter scale.'Transform Fault Boundaries.the plate of the earth pushes oppositedirections and that causes the earth to shake
An earthquake can occur at divergent, convergent, or transform plate boundaries. However, transform boundaries are most commonly associated with earthquakes due to the intense stress caused by the plates sliding past each other.
All of them. For example: the earthquake of 2010 in Chile happened along a convergent fault while the 2010 earthquake in Haiti happened along a transform fault. Source: I am just a genius...
No. The Haitian earthquake was caused by a transform boundary.
No, they don't. In fact earthquake are a result of transform plate movement.
The 1994 Northridge earthquake occurred due to the movement along the Northridge blind thrust fault, which is a reverse fault associated with the Pacific Plate sliding northwest relative to the North American Plate. This earthquake was a result of the tectonic forces between these two plates.

When transform plate boundaries occur, people usually do not feel anything directly. These boundaries are characterized by horizontal slippage of the Earth's crust, which does not typically generate the high-impact seismic events associated with other types of plate boundaries like earthquakes at subduction zones or mid-ocean ridges. However, if an earthquake does occur along a transform boundary, people in nearby areas may feel shaking.
Transform boundaries do not produce volcanic activity.
No, the 2011 Japan earthquake was a megathrust earthquake, specifically a subduction zone earthquake. It occurred along the boundary between the Pacific Plate and the North American Plate, where the Pacific Plate is subducting beneath the North American Plate.
earthquakes indicate both convergent,divergent and transform fault plate boundaries
The San Andreas Fault is associated with a transform plate boundary. It marks the boundary between the Pacific Plate and the North American Plate, where they are sliding past each other horizontally. This movement can cause earthquakes along the fault line.
