See the link below. The US (excluding Hawaii) is on the dark brown plate. Hawaii is in the top middle of the light yellow plate.
The tectonic plates aren't located on a map they are on the kitchen next to the bowls
Because the dry land (continents) are the top of the tectonic plates?

when plates collide mountains will form. If you look at a map with the plate boundaries and compare it to a physical map of the world you will see that a lot of mountaind=s form on plate boundries.
they have special map for showing the plates, i believe it is called a tectonic map.

There are a number of websites that provide maps or diagrams showing the major tectonic plates. Perhaps one of the best is that produced by the US Geological Survey. Please see the related link.

It depends on where you are there are many tectonic plates I recomend that you should look up tectonic plate map and look for where you are.
Because the pacific ocean plate is the largest tectonic plate and becouse it is located at the distructive plate bountary

Earthquakes are most common above boundaries between the tectonic plates. If a map is taken and then earthquake patterns marked on it, the clear shapes of the tectonic plates can be seen, out lined by the earthquake markers. (the clear shapes of the tectonic plates...that's actually kind of a cool rhyme...)
A fault line is the boundary between two tectonic plates; fault lines do not ordinarily appear on maps.
earthquakes are caused by tectonic plates (wich hold the dry land up out of the water) crunching and grinding against each other. for a map of the tectonic plates go to wikipedia and type 'plate tectonics.' it should take you directly to a map. hope this is helpful!
