What else can I help you with?
When two tectonic plates push into each other the place the two plates meet is what?
They are called a Plate Boundaries :)
What is it called when the force hat occurs when plates are pushed together is called?
The force that occurs when tectonic plates are pushed together is called "compression." This type of stress can lead to the formation of mountains, earthquakes, and other geological phenomena as the plates collide and interact with each other.
How many ways are there to measure earthquakes?
There are three different types of earthquake.TectonicvolcanicMan maidThere are 3 kinds of earthquakes. One where the plates push together, another where the plates slide against each other, and one where the plates pull apart.
Earthquakes result when forces push what along faults in earths lithosphere?
Earthquakes result when forces push plates along faults in the Earth's lithosphere. These plates are comprised of the crust and a portion of the upper mantle.
Why do volcanos occur more at locations where two plates meet?
The reason this occurs is because of subduction. The heat of the plates rubbing causes magma to rise forcing through the lithosphere (or crust). Thus causing alot of volcanos over convergent plates.
What is it called when plates push together?
Compressed
What word has the definition tectonic plates push together?
When tectonic plates push together, they converge, forming a convergent boundary.
What forms when plate push together?
when plates push together, it forms new land.
What is the place called where older crust is destroyed because two plates converge or push together?
magma
What Happens Gradually when plates push together?
in
These form when two continental plates push together?
convergent boundary
What forms when continental plates push together?
Volcanoes or sometimes earthquake!
What are mountains that are formed by pushing plates together?
Mountain ranges formed by the pushing together of tectonic plates are called fold mountains. Examples include the Himalayas and the Alps, where the collision of plates has caused the Earth's crust to fold and create towering mountain peaks.
Does sea floor spreading happen when 2 plates push together?
yes it does
How can the movement of tectonic plates create a mountain?
The plates push and pull and grind against each other they push together the force goes up and they form large mountains!
Which landform is likely to form where two oceanic plates push together?
A deep ocean trench is likely to form where two oceanic plates push together in a convergent boundary. This is because one of the plates subducts beneath the other, creating a deep trench.
When plates push together compression causes the ground to form what mountain?
stromboli mountains
