Continental crust (Eurasian Plate) and oceanic crust (pacific plate) move towards each other, oceanic crust sinks because its denser, this forms deep sea trenches and volcanoes
Japan sits on top of a destructive plate margin.
Krakatoa is located on a destructive plate margin where the Indo-Australian plate subducts beneath the Eurasian plate. This subduction zone has led to the formation of volcanic islands in the region, including Krakatoa.
was pompei on a destructive margin
Destructive(collisional) plate margin/boundary
They do not JUST happen in Japan, but they are common there because the Japanese islands are situated right next to a very active destructive plate margin.
A coastline. a destructive plate margin.
Mount Etna is located on a destructive plate boundary, where the African Plate is being subducted beneath the Eurasian Plate. The melting of the subducted plate generates magma that rises to the surface, leading to volcanic activity at Mount Etna.
Niether. Kilauea is in the middle of the Pacific plate, thousands of miles from the nearest plate boundary. The volcanic activty is due to a hot spot.
Ur mummas plate
Britain is not located on a destructive plate margin and the ring of fire is an ocean and a continent away.
Yes, the Kobe earthquake occurred along a destructive plate boundary where the Philippine Sea Plate subducted beneath the Eurasian Plate. This resulted in intense shaking and significant damage to infrastructure in the region.
It's called destructive plate margin/boundary, or convergent plate margin though this term applies to all plate margins where two plates are moving towards each other (such as continental + continental or oceanic + oceanic).
