The surface feature formed when two plates meet is known as a fault. In some cases mountains can also be formed when two plates collide.
Volcanoes often occur on fault lines because these are areas where tectonic plates meet and interact. When these plates move against each other, they can create intense heat and pressure that leads to the formation of magma chambers beneath the Earth's surface. This magma can eventually erupt through the fault lines, resulting in volcanic activity.
mountains are formed through the movement of tectonic plates which form the earths crust, with the force from convection currents. as two plates move towards eachother, where they meet can be pushed up to form mountain ranges etc.
The Earth's crust is a series of 'plates' moving on a molten surface. These plates slide against each other, and friction causes pressure to build up where the plates meet. Eventually, the pressure becomes so great that the plates 'snap' past each other. This releases the built-up pressure which we feel as tremors.
The place where tectonic plates touch is known as a plate boundary. These boundaries can be divergent (moving apart), convergent (coming together), or transform (sliding past each other). Interactions at these boundaries often result in earthquakes, volcanic activity, and the formation of mountain ranges.
Breaks in the Earth's crust where plates meet are called plate boundaries. These boundaries are classified into three types: divergent, convergent, and transform boundaries, depending on the motion of the plates.
these are the plates under the land and they are spins round and when they meet and they form the continents

---- ---- A volcano or a mountin forms when they push up and a threch is formed when it pushea down. When ever two plates meet they create an earthquake.
An image that is formed when light rays meet is called a real image. This type of image is formed when light rays converge to a point either on a screen or a surface.
A place where two tectonic plates meet is a fracture in the Earth.

Earthquakes occur when a shift in the earth's crust causes tremors to rock the surface of the earth around the shift. Since the Earth's crust is divided into different plates, and these plates move around (very slowly) on the earth, there are earthquakes. Also, since there are different parts that the plates meet at, there are certain "hotspots" where more earthquakes happen (where the plates meet).
The earth's crust is made up of plates that are always moving. If suddenly one moves on top or under another, than the earth shakes and it forms an earthquake or tremor, depending on how much the plates moved ( a tremor is a small earthquake.) Earthquakes only occur where the plates meet, for example in Japan and America there are lots of earthquakes because lots of plates meet on the area above them. The lines where the plates meet are called fault lines
Volcanoes often occur on fault lines because these are areas where tectonic plates meet and interact. When these plates move against each other, they can create intense heat and pressure that leads to the formation of magma chambers beneath the Earth's surface. This magma can eventually erupt through the fault lines, resulting in volcanic activity.
A plateau is a raised area of flat land, used for irrigation and farming. On the other hand, a mountain is formed from the movement of plates underneath the earths surface, which, when they meet, push against each other and get pushed upwards, creating a mountain.
