The two plates are; Indo-Australian Plate subducts and Pacific Plate that form the Puysegur Trench.
As far as the Earth is concerned - plate tectonics has not stopped; the plates are still in motion - which is why we get earthquakes and volcanic eruptions along the plate boundaries.
Far-field stresses triggered by portions of the northern boundary stress the African plate. Intraplate stresses are the driving forces in the South American plate

No. Many faults, especially minor ones, are located far from plate boundaries.
40 feet.
Distance = Speed x TimeFor example, let's say a plate moves a distance of 5 centimeters in one year. So, the speed of the plate is 5cm/yr. You can use this speed to predict how far the plate will move in 1000 years.Distance= (5cm/1yr) x (1000yr)=5000cm
This railway is an Indian state-owned enterprise, meaning it's owned and operated by the government of India. Indian Railways began in the mid nineteenth century and travels all over India.
"Distance" describes how far something has moved. "Displacement" describes not only how far, but also in what direction.
Shield volcanoes may occur far from any plate boundaries.

It is touching it, so there is no distance between them.
There was a big earthquake in japan on Friday the 11th of march. it was caused by a destructive plate boundary. the pacific plate moved down under the Eurasian plate. That caused a lot of pressure in the epicenter what was about 200km far from Tokyo. The result was an earthquake. the earthquake caused a tsunami. It was up to 10 m high waves destroyed thousands of houses in the coast of japan.
They have moved 3 miles south.
