What is the name of the boundary where two plates are moving toward one another?
Convergent boundary.
A convergent boundary causes what stress type?
A convergent boundary causes compressional stress.
What type of boundary is the mariana trench?
The Mariana Trench is a convergent boundary, where two tectonic plates are colliding and one plate is forced beneath the other.
What are 2 different convergent boundaries?
Oceanic-continental convergent boundary: Where oceanic plates subduct beneath continental plates, creating deep ocean trenches and volcanic arcs on the overriding plate. Continental-continental convergent boundary: Where two continental plates collide, causing intense folding and faulting to create mountain ranges. An example is the collision of the Indian Plate with the Eurasian Plate, forming the Himalayas.
In which direction do plates travel at a convergent boundary?
At a convergent boundary, plates move towards each other.
What land forms do convergent boundary's?
mountains
what happens to a convergent boundary?
a subduction zone forms
What type tectonic plate boundary forms the Mariana trench?
A Transform Fault ZoneIn the textbook Earth Science and the Environment (4th Edition) by Thompson and Turk. Located on page 163, it shows that Tonga has a Convergent Boundary. A convergent boundary is where two lithospheic plates collide head on.
Where does a rift valley form?
A rift valley forms at a convergent boundary.
When limestone is squeezed at a convergent boundary it forms what new rock?
basalt
Is the Tambora on a convergent boundary?
Yes. Tambora is located where the Indian-Australian plate and the Eurasian plate collide. When two plates collide, it forms a convergent boundary.
What is the name of the boundary where two plates are moving toward one another?
Convergent boundary.
What are the types of convergent boundary?
There are 3 types of Convergent boundaries, they are; 1. Continental-continental convergent boundary. 2. Continental-oceanic convergent boundary. 3. Oceanic-oceanic convergent boundary.
A convergent boundary causes what stress type?
A convergent boundary causes compressional stress.
What is a specific example of what forms as a result of a shift in a convergent boundary?
at an oceanic to continental convergent boundary trenches and volcanic mountains can form. at an oceanic to oceanic convergent boundary trenches and volcanic islands can form. at a continental to continental convergent boundary fold mountains can form
When a strike slip fault that forms the boundary between two plates called a convergent boundary?
No, a strike-slip fault forms at a transform boundary where two plates slide past each other horizontally. A convergent boundary is where two plates move towards each other, leading to subduction or collision.
The boundary formed between 2 plates that are colliding?
A convergent boundary is formed when two tectonic plates collide. This collision can result in one plate being forced beneath the other in a process called subduction, where the denser plate sinks into the mantle. This can lead to the formation of mountain ranges, deep ocean trenches, and volcanic activity.
