Answer:
Yes, a divergent plate boundary can create earthquakes. There are two primary types of divergent boundaries; spreading ridges in the oceans, and rift valleys on land. They create earthquakes in different ways. To get an earthquake, surfaces need to move over each other.

Answer:
Earthquakes at divergent plate boundaries occur as new crust is created and other crust is pushed apart. This causes the crust to crack and form faults where earthquakes occur. Most earthquakes at divergent plate boundaries occur at mid-ocean ridges where two pieces of oceanic crust are moving away from each other.
