The illustration shows two objects that have undergone energy transformations. Which of the following is true about the objects?
Both objects produce a form of thermal energy.
Both objects have electrical energy present.
The initial source of energy for one of the object is chemical.
All of the above.
Convergent boundaries are when plates move toward one another and collide. How are convergent boundaries involved in geological events such as volcanoes?
When oceanic crust slide past each other without tearing or crushing each other, a volcano forms on the crust away from the plate boundary.
When oceanic crust slide past each other without tearing or crushing each other, a volcano forms on the crust near the plate boundary.
When oceanic crust move under a continental crust, a volcanic mountain range forms on the crusts near the plate boundary.
When oceanic crust is forced over a continental crust, a volcanic mountain range forms on the crusts away from the plate boundary.
