Question

Give reasons for each of the following : Moderate earthquakes are caused near divergent plate boundaries.​

Answer 1

please follow me

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.
