Question

What happens when the two plates of earth's crust moving in opposite direction slide past one another

Answer 1

tides, currents, and earth quake occurs

Answer 2

When oceanic or continental plates slide past each other in opposite directions, or move in the same direction but at different speeds, a transform fault boundary is formed. No new crust is created or subducted, and no volcanoes form, but earthquakes occur along the fault.
