Convergent Boundary.

What is it called when two plate tectonics move side by side?
When two tectonic plates move side by side, it is called a transform boundary. This movement can result in earthquakes due to the plates grinding against each other. The San Andreas Fault in California is a well-known example of a transform boundary.
What are the three types of earth's plates?
The three types of Earth's plates are convergent plates, where two plates move towards each other; divergent plates, where two plates move away from each other; and transform plates, where two plates slide past each other horizontally.
What forms when two lithospheric plates move apart?
When two lithospheric plates move apart, a divergent boundary is formed. This process results in the creation of new oceanic crust as magma rises to fill the gap between the plates, forming a mid-ocean ridge.
What is it called when two plates move towards each other When they move together What is the motion called?
When two plates move towards each other, it is called convergence. The motion during convergence is usually called subduction if one plate is forced beneath the other, or collision if the two plates collide and form mountain ranges.
When two plates move past each other what is formed?
When two plates move past each other, a transform fault boundary is formed. This boundary is characterized by horizontal motion, and the friction between the plates causes earthquakes along the fault line.

What are three types of faults and how are they diffrent?
Transverse - Plates move side by side Convergent - Plates move towards each other, usually one gets subducted. Divergent - Plates move away from each other.
What type of boundary is called when two tectonic plates move side by side?
I believe it is called a fault, like the San Andreas fault in California.
What is it called when two lithospheric plates move apart?
Continental Plates
How slow do two oceanic plates move?
they move slow
What are the three types of earth's plates?
The three types of Earth's plates are convergent plates, where two plates move towards each other; divergent plates, where two plates move away from each other; and transform plates, where two plates slide past each other horizontally.
What are the three types of plate tectonic boundries?
The three types of plate tectonic boundaries are divergent boundaries, where plates move apart; convergent boundaries, where plates collide; and transform boundaries, where plates slide past each other horizontally.
What is it called when two plates move away from each other?
When two plates move away from each other it makes a falt line or a riffed. -bekahcboo
What is the movement of diverging?
A plate boundary where two plates move away from each other.A plate boundary where two plates move away from each other.
When two continental plates move apart?
earthquake!!!!!!
How many mph do tectonic plates move?
Two
What happen when two plates move towards?
compression
