Two tectonic plates rub against each other at their boundaries, particularly at transform boundaries where they slide past one another. This lateral movement can cause friction, leading to earthquakes as stress builds up and is eventually released. Additionally, plates may rub against each other at convergent boundaries, where one plate is forced under another, creating intense pressure and geological activity.

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 is the boundary when two plates slide against each other?
The boundary where two plates slide against each other is called a transform plate boundary. At this boundary, the plates are sliding past each other horizontally. Transform boundaries are characterized by frequent earthquakes due to the intense friction between the plates.
What can happen when 2 plates slide against each other?
an earthquake
Why do you think the plates began to slip against each other laterally 30 million years ago?

How does a mountain range form?
Is form when two plates collide; is caused by the force pushing against each other (the plates).

What happens when two tectonic plates oush against each other?
it would brake
What would happen if two plates started to pushing against each other?
nothing
What would happen when two titanic plates rub against each other?
nothing?
What would happen if tectonic plates glided against each other?
A small earthquake
What is a contiental boundary?
when the plates get against each other
What would happen if two tectonic plates rubbed back and forth against each other?
an earthquake happens
What are the three main plate boundries?
Divergent, convergent, and transform. transform boundary is when plates slide against each other. Convergent is when plates collide and push against each other, and divergent is when plates pull apart.
What is the boundary when two plates slide against each other?
The boundary where two plates slide against each other is called a transform plate boundary. At this boundary, the plates are sliding past each other horizontally. Transform boundaries are characterized by frequent earthquakes due to the intense friction between the plates.
Do faults cause earthquakes?
no. the plates pushing against each other do.
What can happen when 2 plates slide against each other?
an earthquake
Do convergent plates move away from each other?
they move against one another
