One reason is that the plates float on a hot boiling mentle. when the heat rises and the mentle expands the plates above it also moves. 
the other reason is that the plates themselves move.plates have warmer inner sides that tend to rise. and colder outer side that tends to sink. this tug of war between the hotter and colder sides of the plate also helps them move.

Please help me with this problem
OlgaM077 [116]
Well, if you look at the ocean from a standing point of view, it's pretty flat and water is spread all around the surface. Because of this, most people would assume that ocean is just flat and smooth. 

Thanks to the discovery of science, we're able to go down deep and learn that there is more to the ocean than we knew about. =)

Hope that helps! -UnicornFudge aka Nadia

How do people who supply their own water generally obtain it?
satela [25.4K]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

By digging tube wells

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Water can be obtained from the land by digging a hole in the earth surface. The process is called boring. A tube well is a type of water well in which a long, 100–200 millimeters-wide, stainless steel tube or pipe is bored into an underground aquifer. In this way people who supply their own water to other areas or people generally obtain it by using tube wells where they attach a motor to it for speedy suction and then transfer the water to destination by using pipes.
