Explanation:

Shear stress occurs in what we call transform boundaries. Transform boundaries happen when two tectonic plates slide against each other.

There are 3 main types of stress and shear stress is one of them.

Additional information ahead, continue reading if you'd like to know more.

Compression stress occurs when two tectonic plates are convergin g (at convergent boundaries).

Tension stress occurs when two tectonic plates are diverging, or when they are moving apart, (at divergent boundaries).

the energy to form plasma comes from heat or electricity in the atmosphere!
