When a hanging wall moves up to the footwall it is a?

reverse fault. but that is when the foot wall moves down, the hanging wall moves up. in a strike-slip fault, they slide past each other, the foot wall and hanging wall are not there because it has to be like this to be a reverse or normal fault: hanging wall ----------foot wall ----------- in this diagram, the foot wall has moved down making the hanging wall move up to form a reverse fault. remember this on tests: the hanging wall is always above the fault line: /hanging wall above foot wall below / /


How would you classify a fault in which the foot wall has slid over the hanging wall?

you would call it a normal fault because the hanging wall goes down and the foot wall goes up and over the hanging wall.


How are normal and reverse faults differ?

Normal faults are where the hanging wall drops in relation to the foot wall where as with the reverse fault the hanging wall is pushed higher over the foot wall.

How does the hanging wall in a normal fault move in relation to a reverse fault?

In a normal fault, the hanging wall moves downward relative to the footwall, creating extensional forces. In a reverse fault, the hanging wall moves upward relative to the footwall, generating compressional forces.


What is the difference between a foot-wall fault and the hanging wall fault?

Take the fault as an inclined plane with the earths surface as the horizontal plane.The foot wall side of the fault is always located to the side where the plane of the fault and the horizontal forms an acute angle.The hanging wall side of the fault is always located to the side of the fault where the plane of the fault and the horizontal makes an obtuse angle.The terminology takes no regard to the direction of motion of the blocks either side of the fault. Thus for a dipping fault, the Hanging Wall is the block positioned over the fault and the Foot Wall is the block positioned under it.
