Surface Waves
Eyjafjallajokull volcano is located on the divergent boundary between the North American Plate and the Eurasian Plate in Iceland.
A sliding boundary is a type of boundary that allows for relative motion between two plates, typically characterized by horizontal movement in opposite directions along the boundary. It often results in shearing or rubbing of rock material along the boundary, causing earthquakes. Deformation and striations on the rocks can be evidence of sliding boundaries.
Surface waves occur between the Earth's surface and the troposphere, which is the lowest layer of the Earth's atmosphere. These waves can be influenced by factors such as wind, temperature gradients, and differences in terrain. They play a role in weather patterns and atmospheric circulation.
It is divergent between the North American and Eurasian plates. Volcanoes and earthquakes do occur along the boundary.

These waves are called boundary waves or interface waves. They are formed due to the interaction of two different media and can exhibit characteristics of both types of waves present at the boundary.
I, II, and III <3
When two media have the same index of refraction, it means that light travels at the same speed through both media, so there is no change in speed or direction of the light at the boundary between them. This results in no refraction occurring as there is no bending of the light rays.
Earthquakes can occur at a transform boundary.

Refraction occurs when light passes between materials of different optical densities, causing a change in its speed and direction. The change in speed must be coupled with a change in direction to enable refraction to occur.
The 3 types of plate boundaries that occur is the spreading boundary, fracture boundary, and the colliding boundary.
