What force is present at a convergent boundary?
Anuta_ua [19.1K]
Divergent boundaries are formed when plates are pulling apart; this kind of force is called tension. The opposite boundary is a convergent boundary, where two plates collide; this happens near subduction zones. The force present in a transform boundary is shearing, which is when two things grind past each other.

Answer= convergent=shearing
