No, tectonic plates move at different rates. Some plates move faster than others, while some plates move very slowly. The movement of the plates is driven by the underlying convection currents in the Earth's mantle.
When convection currents sink near the mantle, they create drag on the lithospheric plates above. This drag causes the plates to move in the direction of the sinking current. As the plates move, they can interact with other plates, leading to processes like subduction or mountain formation.
The plates that move are called tectonic plates. The lithosphere is made up of these plates, which consist of both the crust and the upper part of the mantle. These plates float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere below, causing them to move and interact with each other at plate boundaries.
The Earth's tectonic plates do not move on top of the crust, they are the crust. The crust is made out of plates. The plates float on top of the mantle, which is made of molten rock, called magma. The plates move because of currents in the magma.
The reason continents move is because in the earth there are plates. The plates move because in the upper mantle (lithosphere) is hot liquid and it shoots up and shift the plates.
The tectonic plates around Krakatoa, located in the Sunda Arc of Indonesia, primarily move in a northward and eastward direction due to the subduction of the Indo-Australian Plate beneath the Eurasian Plate. This movement contributes to volcanic activity in the region, including the eruptions of Krakatoa. Additionally, the complex interactions of the surrounding plates can lead to varying degrees of seismic activity. Overall, the area is characterized by significant tectonic dynamics.
The Eurasian and the Indian Plates collided to make Krakatoa (also known as Krakatau) erupt
There is a subduction zone under Krakatoa where the Indian Ocean seafloor is being pushed eastwards under Indonesia. (The Australian plate is moving under the Eurasian plate here.) When the seafloor is pushed into the earth it melts due to increases in pressure and temperature. The hot, melted seafloor material (now known as magma) rises up and creates volcanoes like Krakatoa.

Plates move apart on divergent plate boundaries.
they move away form each other, so what ever the direction the plates are the move the apposite direction away
No, tectonic plates move at different rates. Some plates move faster than others, while some plates move very slowly. The movement of the plates is driven by the underlying convection currents in the Earth's mantle.
Just say Krakatoa. If a Filipino can think of an easier way to say a word they will, and that includes using other languages.
the ocean plates move because of the movement of the the tectonic plates beneath the ocean and do to the motion of the oceans currents.
One of the way is they move towards each other and converge,or collide
