yes
Transform boundaries have earthquakes that are transverse in nature. These boundaries occur when two tectonic plates slide horizontally past each other, causing friction and pressure to build up until it is released as an earthquake.
Yes, subduction zones are significant sites for earthquakes. They occur when one tectonic plate is forced beneath another, creating intense pressure and friction along the boundary. This buildup of stress can eventually be released in the form of earthquakes, which can be quite powerful and damaging. Many of the world's largest earthquakes occur in subduction zone regions.
The deepest earthquakes typically occur in subduction zones where one tectonic plate is being forced beneath another plate into the Earth's mantle. These earthquakes can occur several hundred kilometers below the surface due to the intense pressure and heat at these depths.
Some of the deepest earthquakes on Earth occur in subduction zones, where one tectonic plate is forced beneath another. These earthquakes can happen as deep as 700 kilometers (430 miles) below the surface. Examples of subduction zones where deep earthquakes occur include the Japan Trench and the Peru-Chile Trench.
Yes, earthquakes frequently occur near island arcs as they are geologically active regions where tectonic plates are colliding or subducting. Subduction zones along these island arcs can generate powerful earthquakes due to the intense geological activity.
The deepest earthquakes occur at subduction zones where one tectonic plate is forced beneath another into the Earth's mantle. These earthquakes can occur as deep as 700 km below the surface.

Earthquakes generate both transverse and longitudinal waves.
earthquakes are most likely to occur on the rim of tectonic plates
subduction zones, where tectonic plates collide or slide past each other. Subduction zones are characterized by deep-seated forces that generate powerful earthquakes deep within the Earth's crust. These deep earthquakes can reach depths of 700 kilometers or more.
