Answer:

Ridge push is caused by the potential energy gradient from the high topography of the ridges. Slab pull is caused by the negative buoyancy of the subducting plate.

The main difference between ridge push and slab pull is that the ridge push occurs due to potential energy gradient that arises from the tall topographies of the ridges whereas the slab pull occurs due to the negative buoyancy arising in the subducting plate
