An area where two tectonic plates collide is called a boundary. There are three kinds of boundaries. They are convergent, divergent, and transform boundaries.
Subduction takes place at a convergent plate boundary, where two tectonic plates collide and one plate is forced beneath the other into the Earth's mantle. This process is associated with the formation of deep ocean trenches and volcanic arcs.

Japan is at the meeting place of four tectonic plates: The Pacific Plate, The Eurasian Plates, The Philippine Plate, and the Okhotsk Plate (sometimes considered part of the North American Plate).
When tectonic plates push into each other, the boundary where they meet is called a convergent boundary. At convergent boundaries, one plate is forced beneath the other in a process known as subduction, leading to the formation of mountain ranges, earthquakes, and volcanic activity.

A convergent boundary.
convergent boundary
A convergent boundary is the place where two plates come together.Convergent boundary
A convergent plate boundary is a place where tectonic plates are moving together. The plates are sliding across the the plastic asthenosphere.

Convergent boundary...it's on my homework
Earthquakes happen when a rock face along the fault line gives way or grinds against the other side. These are not boundaries such as convergent or divergen boundaries but are generally known as transform faults or just faults.
Convergent boundaries take place where tectonic plates collide. This collision can result in subduction, where one plate is forced beneath another, or in the formation of mountain ranges. Examples of convergent boundaries include the Himalayas between the Indian Plate and the Eurasian Plate.
