The ring of fire is the result of activity around the edges of the Pacific Plate, which moves faster than other other tectonic plates. As it pushes against other plates tension builds up and is released as earthquakes.
Because the Ring of Fire is on the edge of the Pacific Plate (one of the tectonic plates).
More likely than where? please make your questions unambiguous. In general the east side of the US is less likely to have earthquakes and volcanoes as compared to the west side.
Because earthquakes happen underground and volcanoes happen on land.… Not many huge population centers are built near known active volcanoes. Earthquake faults are more widespread. Most quake deaths occur when buildings collapse on the victims in highly populated areas.
cause earthquakes happen a few seconds up to minutes and the aftermath or aftershocks could collapsed buildings destroy homes create tsunamis or volcanoes cause of the impact of earthquakes
The distribution of volcanoes is worldwide, although they are usually perceived to only occur on Plate Boundaries (PBs). However this is not always the case. Sometimes they can occur on faults or ancient faults like Mount Etna, which is still active because the fault line it used to lie on still provides it with magma. Volcanoes can also be present at hotspots, for example, the volcanic Hawaiian Islands. However the largest and most lethal volcanoes are primarily on PBs, sometimes concentrated in a certain area, like the "Ring of fire" on the borders between the Pacific plate and the surrounding plates. These volcanoes often due to spreading ridges, causing gaps through which magma flows up. Volcanoes in this area usually follow earthquakes, which are even more frequent there than on faults
There is an intricate set of techtonic plates that are located all over the earth. When volcanic eruptions occur then these plates can shift due to the excess pressure that the eruptions cause. This techtonic plate movement can then result in earthquakes.
Volcanoes and Earthquakes.
Because that's were the most earthquakes occur
Earthquakes
Earthquakes are most common where plates of the crusts collide or separate and especially in the Pacific ring of fire. The pacific ring of fire is a chain of volcanoes and earthquakes along the edges of the Pacific ocean.
Earthquakes, volcanoes and mountains are formed via plate tectonics. When the large continental plates collide, they either cause temporary earthquakes, or more permanent features such as volcanoes and mountains.
Earthquakes and volcanoes are more common along tectonic plate boundaries.
Area Where Earthquakes and Volcanos Are CommonThat area is called the Ring of Fire.
Where tectonic plates are converging and diverging with each otherThey are mostly found around the Pacific "Ring of Fire", and more generally on any destructive or contstructive plate boundary.Most occur on destructive plate boundaries. The Pacific 'ring of fire' is an example of a long series of destructive plate margins and most volcanoes and earthquakes on Earth are on it.
