Is Sydney likely to experience subduction zone earthquakes?

No. It is impossible actually. The nearest subduction zone to Sydney is over 6,000 miles away. Any earthquake that would occur in Sydney would be an intraplate earthquake.


What kind of a volcano would you find over a hot spot and what kind will you find over a subduction zone?

Over a hot spot, you would find a shield volcano, which is characterized by low viscosity lava and gentle sloping sides. Over a subduction zone, you would find a stratovolcano, which is known for its explosive eruptions due to the magma's higher viscosity from the interaction of oceanic crust melting.


Which boundary will you find a trench in the sea floor?

A destructive plate boundary (WITH a subduction zone!)


What type of stress would you find at a subduction zone?

At a subduction zone, you would primarily find compressional stress. This occurs as one tectonic plate is forced beneath another, leading to significant geological activity, such as earthquakes and volcanic eruptions. The intense pressure can cause deformation of rocks in the region, resulting in the formation of mountain ranges and deep ocean trenches.

What does not happen near a subduction zone?

Earthquakes and volcanic eruptions do not usually happen away from a subduction zone. Subduction zones are known for their intense seismic activity and volcanic activity due to the movement of tectonic plates.


What plate collision would most likely happen in a subduction zone?
