It is called a transform boundary or a strike-slip boundary. This occurs when two tectonic plates slide horizontally past each other.

What are three ways plates can move in relation to one another?
Plates either move towards each other (convergent plates), away from each other (divergent plates) or slide next to each other (transform plates).
What occurs when plates slide past each other?
When plates slide past each other, it is known as a transform boundary. This movement causes earthquakes along the fault line between the two plates. Friction between the plates can build up over time, eventually releasing in a sudden movement that shakes the Earth's surface.
Forms when two crustal lithospheric plates slide past each other?
Sliding Boundaries
What causes a transform boundary?
A transform boundary occurs when two tectonic plates slide past each other horizontally. This movement causes earthquakes along the boundary due to the friction and pressure from the plates interacting.
Name the 3 ways that plates move along a fault in earth and explain the difference between them?
Plates move along a fault through transform boundaries, where they slide past each other horizontally. Plates can also move through divergent boundaries, where they move away from each other. Lastly, plates can move along convergent boundaries, where they collide and push against each other, leading to subduction or mountain formation.
What are the techtonic plates that slide past each other called?
Where 2 plates slide past each other in a horizontal motion that boundary is called a Transform Boundary, or a fault.
When plates slide past each other what is it called?
An earthquake
What happens when tectonic plates slide past each other?
What occurs when the plates slide each other is a boundary forming. this boundary is called a transform boundary.
When 2 plates slide past each other it is called?
It is called transform boundaries.An earthquake
What is it called when the plates are moving toward each other?
This is called a convergent boundary. A divergent boundary is when plate move away from each other, and a transform boundary is when plates slide past each other.
What is it called when plates are moving toward each other?
This is called a convergent boundary. A divergent boundary is when plate move away from each other, and a transform boundary is when plates slide past each other.
What occurs when plates slide past each other?
When plates slide past each other, it is known as a transform boundary. This movement causes earthquakes along the fault line between the two plates. Friction between the plates can build up over time, eventually releasing in a sudden movement that shakes the Earth's surface.
What is a plate called that slide past each other?
I believe that you are thinking of tectonic plates.
Do plates slide past each other at convergent boundaries?
No. Plates come together at convergent boundaries. In other words they converge. Plates slide past each other at transform boundaries.
What plates slide past each other?
A transformed plate margin is the plate that slides past each other
What Are Plates Sliding Against Each Other Called?
I think you're referring to tectonic plates, there are 3 ways one is convergent boundary, divergent, and transform. Plates that slide against each other are called transform boundary's. And your welcome
When two tectonic plates slide past each other horizontally the boundary between them is called?
convergent
