What happens when plates separate from each other?
Ridges, called spreading centers, happen where two plates move away from each other. As the plates separate, molten mantle material (magma/melted rock) flows up to fill the void.
Where do Most earthquakes happen at the edge of?
Most earthquakes happen at the edge of tectonic plates, where the plates are colliding or sliding past each other. These areas are known as plate boundaries, and the stress and friction from the movement of the plates can lead to earthquakes.
A transform fault boundary occurs where two plates what?
Transform fault boundaries happen at the site where two tectonic plates move past each other in opposite directions. The two plates will grind past each other, breaking off pieces of crust from the plates. The plates can get caught on each other and pressure will build up until a break develops and the plates will lurch forward.

What happens when plates on Earth's crust scrape past each other?

What would happen when two titanic plates rub against each other?

What would happen if two plates started to pushing against each other?

Where do divergent plate boundaries happen on earth?
Divergent plates are found in places where the tectonic plates are moving away from each other.
Can I sue you?
Depends, if i crashed into you, you can but if you crashed into me you cant, if we both crashed into each other, i guess you can with evidence.
