Question

Collision of which two types of plates create the deepest earthquakes? Why do you think this is?

Answer 1

The collision of oceanic plates and any other plates in which the oceanic plate slides beneath the other plate creates the biggest earth quakes. Most of these earth quakes occur beneath the sea or oceans and can cause volcanic eruptions as well. Tsunami is another oceanic event that occurs due to earth quakes occurring due to shifting of plates beneath the sea.
