What else can I help you with?
What type of motion happens when tectonic plates slip by each other?
friction
What happens when two plates pull away from each other in opposite directions?
When any fault occurs or tectonic plates pull away from each other under the ground. An earthquake happens.
What do tectonic plates move?
Tectonic Plates move by trying to push past each other and by trying to slide past each other.
What events occur when the tectonic plates move and grind against each other?
When tectonic plates move and grind against each other, this is an earthquake. If the moving of tectonic plates were to occur beneath the ocean's surface, the result would be a tsunami.
What happens to spreading boundaries?
SPREADING ZONES Spreading zone occurs in the border of two tectonic plates. This happens when the plates generally move away from each other creating an opening for the magma to force through the surface.
What type of motion happens when tectonic plates slip by each other?
friction
What happens when two tectonic plates oush against each other?
it would brake
What happens when two plates pull away from each other in opposite directions?
When any fault occurs or tectonic plates pull away from each other under the ground. An earthquake happens.
When tectonic plates collide?
When tectonic plated collide they create an earthquake. It happens by them colliding and shaking each other forming a big movement.
What do tectonic plates move?
Tectonic Plates move by trying to push past each other and by trying to slide past each other.
What would happen if two tectonic plates rubbed back and forth against each other?
an earthquake happens
Where do earthquakes form and where they are find?
Anywhere there are tectonic plates, and when two tectonic plates hit each other
Why did the eartquake in japan happen?
The same reason any earthquake happens, tectonic plates shifted against each other.
What kind of plates bump into each other?
tectonic
Is it true that when tectonic plates slide past each other they create a spreading of an ocean?
No. When tectonic plates move away from each other they can cause an ocean to spread.
What events occur when the tectonic plates move and grind against each other?
When tectonic plates move and grind against each other, this is an earthquake. If the moving of tectonic plates were to occur beneath the ocean's surface, the result would be a tsunami.
Is an earthquake caused by water penetrating Earth's surface?
No. An earthquake happens when the earth's tectonic plates rub against each other.
