What is it called when two plates collide forming a mountain?
I think that when two continental plates collide it's called a collision margin, the mountains that then form are called fold mountains :)
Name two landforms that are created when plates collide?
Mountains and deep ocean trenches are two landforms that are created when tectonic plates collide. Mountains are formed when two continental plates collide and push against each other, while deep ocean trenches occur when one oceanic plate subducts beneath another.
What surface feature is formed where two plates meet?
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.
Do folded mountains form at convergent boundaries where two plates collide?
Yes, folded mountains form at convergent boundaries where two plates collide. The immense pressure from the collision pushes the edges of the plates upward, creating long, folded mountain ranges. Examples include the Himalayas and the Andes.
What is formed when two ocean plate collide?
When tectonic plates collide and the direction of the forces is primarily perpendicular, the plates push up forming a mountain. The Himalayan Mountains are formed by the collision of two plates and are still growing. The summit of Mount Everest is, in fact, marine limestone.
When two continental plates collide what types of mountain are formed?
When two continental plates collide,fold mountains are formed.
When two continenal plates collide what types of mountains are formed?
eudipeiwuo
What do two oceanic plates that collide form?
eigther volcanoes or mountains
What landform forms when two of earth's plates collide?
A mountain range forms when two of Earth's plates collide. The intense pressure and forces created by the collision push the Earth's crust upwards, creating towering peaks and ranges. Examples include the Himalayas formed by the collision of the Indian Plate and the Eurasian Plate.
What is the type of plate boundary where two plates collide?
A convergent boundary is where two plates collide. This can lead to the formation of mountains, earthquakes, and volcanic activity.
When two oceanic plates collide what physical feature forms?
Mountains and grass
A boundary where two plates meet and collide forming mountains is called a?
A boundary where two plates meet and collide forming mountains is called a convergent boundary. It is also known as destructive plate boundary.
Why do large mountains form when two continental collide?
When the two plates collide, they fold. causing both plates to move upwards trying to get around one another. Over time when the plates move upwards, mountains form. This is exactly how Everest was formed.
What type of geological feature will form where two plates collide?
mountains, crevasses, canyons
When two continental plates collide what happens?
When two continental plates collide they form mountains .
What is it called when two plates collide forming a mountain?
I think that when two continental plates collide it's called a collision margin, the mountains that then form are called fold mountains :)
What stress forms folded mountains?
two plates collide and then their edges crumble like a paper
