Mid ocean ridge are where new crustal material is forced to the surface. The new crustal material is pushed apart forming two different plates moving in two different directions. An ocean trench is where old crustal material is pushed under another plate where it is melted and turned into magma.
1) heat from radioactive decay in the core of the Earth heard the mantle.
2) Plates move averagely only a few cm a year, this has been happening ever since the planet formed and cooled to give a thick crust so this movement has added up over many years to move plates far from where they started.
3) because the mantle is heated and is able to flow slowly, convection currents are set up which cause the plates on the crust to move.
