The L'Aquila earthquake in 2009 occurred along a fault line within the Eurasian Plate, which is a tectonic boundary between the African Plate and the Eurasian Plate. The earthquake was caused by the movement of the Eurasian Plate in relation to the African Plate.
The Morocco earthquake was caused by the movement of the African Plate colliding with the Eurasian Plate along a convergent boundary. This collision resulted in the uplift of the Atlas Mountains and the seismic activity in the region.
The earthquake in Haiti was caused by a strike-slip fault along the boundary between the Caribbean Plate and the North American Plate. Strike-slip faults occur when two plates slide past each other horizontally, causing seismic activity.
The earthquake in Chile on February 27, 2010 was caused by the release of stress along the boundary where the Nazca Plate subducts beneath the South American Plate. The sudden movement along this subduction zone generated the earthquake.
No, the L'Aquila earthquake was not caused by a conservative plate boundary. It was associated with the movement along a normal fault within the Eurasian Plate. Normal faulting occurs at divergent plate boundaries, where plates move away from each other, rather than at conservative plate boundaries where plates slide past each other horizontally.
No. The Haitian earthquake was caused by a transform boundary.

The 1964 earthquake in Anchorage, Alaska occurred as a result of an oceanic plate sinking under a continental or land plate. Two types of tsunami were produced as a result of this massive quake.

The Kansu earthquake took place on the Weihe Basin fault, not on a plate boundary. The Weihe Basin is a normal dip-slip fault.
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.
